Today, Munduruku Indigenous representatives and activists traveled thousands of kilometres from the heart of the Brazilian Amazon to the annual shareholder’s meeting of General Electric (GE) in the United States. Their goal: to confront the company on its involvement in destructive hydroelectric mega dams in the Amazon.
Today Munduruku Indigenous leaders and activists journeyed from the Brazilian Amazon to attend General Electric’s (GE) Annual General Meeting. We are calling on CEO Jeffrey Immelt to end the company’s potential involvement in the proposed São Luiz do Tapajós (SLT) mega dam in the Amazon and other similar projects.
Greenpeace Brazil has published Damning the Amazon, a report profiling controversy surrounding the largest proposed megadam complex since the infamous Belo Monte.
