Amazon: major dam project stopped

05 Aug, 2016 By admin

Good news: the hydroelectric dam on the Tapajós river in the Amazon now officially does not get the environmental licence because of social and environmental concerns!

The dam would have flooded 376 sq km of Amazon rainforest and displaced some 12,000 Munduruku Indians.
