Indigenous Alliances: Tar Sands & Amazon

[The_Takeoff]

Hi there,

We are currently working on a documentary film "The Condor & The Eagle" addressing Indigenous rights issues in the Canadian Tar Sands and the Amazon in South America. On our 18 months journey we are travelling to various communities that are impacted by extractive oil industries.


2015 Oscar nominee Mark Ruffalo says about the upcoming documentary film "The Condor & The Eagle":

I am very impressed with this inspiring Indigenous alliance initiative - bringing together Indigenous leaders from the North and from the South. The Condor And The Eagle is an important Documentary Film in the making, witnessing how the Indigenous people are organizing their communities around Mother wisdom. They need our help to finish the film! They need our support to make sure our brothers and sisters from the Amazon and North America grow this driving force we need in the face of growing climate chaos. Their common voice carries a great deal of power and their wisdom is essential for the task at hand. Come on friends, let’s show them some support!


We invite you to get more info about our initiative HERE.

If you believe our work is important, we would highly appreciate if you could take the time to contact directly 2 or 3 people you believe would be interested in supporting such a project; we have only a few days left to raise the funds!

Here is some background info for you guys! We believe that this is really important and would love discussing the topic with you...

- Canada´s climate performance is the worst in the entire Western world. Germanwatch, Climate Action Network Europe
- Oil sands production emits 3-4 times more greenhouse gases than producing conventional crude oil. This makes it one of the world´s dirtiest forms of fuel.
- 11 million litres of toxic wastewater seep out of the tailing pits into the boreal forest and Athabasca river every day. That´s 4 billion litres a year. National Energy Board, Canada´s Oil Sands: Opportunities and Challenges to 2015


This is a global issue and people need to hear about it! That´s the goal of our documentary film, please watch the preview if you also believe in the importance of this so needed change!
