Friendship - Amazon River - Brazil (Tabatinga)

Resting in the Daytime in Tabatinga. Brazil....Friendship.

I visited with them here when Crossing the Border into Leticia Colombia from Brazil.

 

A walk would open up many doors of interest and new connections.....just finding vegetables and fruit made an enjoyable morning break........

 

THE AREA OF THE SOUTH AMERICAN RAINFOREST IS THEIR HOME ....

..............................................

To Whom it may Concern --

 

Please pick up your machinery and your cattle and your bank balances ; ..... forget the non-sustainable charcoal industry, the lumber & the drugs, - the rare or young captive animals you wish to take for the exotic pet trade and also the precious stones and gold you desire to make huge profits on - (open mining is killing people )

and .............Please Leave........ Go home and try to search for your human self...you have already involved the local people in all of these schemes and situations...with inhumane tactics & repercussions.......

 

I have read that governments here are trying to balance the books of right and wrong but for every positive action .......... .......etc.

 

............................................

If you would like to see a photo of the charcoal industry in the Brazilian Forest, view here:

" This scene can be seen throughout the length of the road that cuts the

State of Pará to the Tocantins. You simply cannot see any trees

along the road. There are almost * 700 km * of a landscape totally degraded. "
