Leonardo DiCaprio Instagram – Repost from @rewild: The people of Panama are coming together to defend nature, calling on the country’s Supreme Court to declare a controversial mining project – in the protected rainforest Bosque Donoso – as unconstitutional.
This area, lying in the heart of the largest biological corridor in Mesoamerica, is a lifeline for many migratory species. It is critical to the livelihoods and cultures of local and Indigenous communities, and is home to wildlife that includes macaws, tapirs, monkeys and jaguars. This activity would have destructive impact on the surrounding ecosystems, species, and people.
A global spotlight can help Panamanians win a critical victory for biodiversity and can pave the way for a more sustainable future.
Sign the petition to halt the mining project in Panama at the #linkinbio.
