If prospectors were digging for gold in your back yard and contaminating your only source of water with mercury, would you still decorate yourself with gold jewelry? 

We need to reconsider our relationship with all of the living world and no longer think like consumers in an economy but recognize that we are organisms in an ecosystem.

Indigenous peoples use the water in the rivers and streams in their ancestral territories for drinking, cooking, bathing and fishing.

Gold mining and other extractive industries contaminate the water, poisoning people, wildlife and the soil.

Please help Indigenous peoples, Nature and wildlife by boycotting all products from deforestation; gold, palm oil, exotic wood, soy, beef, etc.!
