Alors que des milliers de personnes se mobilisent en Europe pour entraver la marche des déchets radioactifs de nos centrales nucléaires, ce monstre de cinq mètres de haut et 320 tonnes chemine paisiblement pour accomplir son funeste festin.

Report exposes threat to dam 'Lost World' The Akawaio and Arekuna fish in the Mazaruni river and its tributaries. The proposed dam would flood the tribes' land and forever destroy an area famed for its scenery and bio-diversity. © Audrey Butt Colson Plans to build a massive hydro-electric dam on the land of two unique tribes in Guyana would lead to the destruction of a unique people and vast tracts of rainforest, a new report has revealed today.

The report ‘Dug out, dried out or flooded out?’ , written by anthropologist Dr Audrey Butt Colson and published by Survival International, reveals that Guyana’s government aims to push ahead with one or more dams on the Upper Mazaruni River, which would flood out the entire Akawaio indigenous people and an Arekuna community. Guyana’s government has shrouded the project in secrecy. The government has failed to obtain the indigenous peoples’ free, prior and informed consent, as required by international law, and the tribes have expressed their vocal opposition to the project.

Brazilian Indians forced to leave mega-dam site. Amazon Indians have been protesting against Belo Monte for years © Marcello Casal Jr/ABr The Brazilian authorities have evicted Indians from the Belo Monte dam site, where they were protesting for their land rights. Representatives of eight tribes had been occupying the area, demanding that the government respect their right to their ancestral land and to be consulted about projects that will affect them, and that the construction be stopped immediately. The government initially responded to the protest by preventing journalists, lawyers, and food entering the occupation site.

A judge then ruled that the Indians could be forcefully removed. Belo Monte is currently being built despite widespread opposition by thousands of indigenous people, who warn it will devastate their land and reduce fish stocks, a crucial part of their diet. Its construction was illegally approved, without the consent of the local population. Share this news story. Brazil police shoot Indians – more violence feared.
