Meet Nemonte Nenquimo, Emergildo Criollo, Sandro Piaguaje, and Pablo Maniguaje, a group of indigenous leaders who have come together with Amazon Frontlines to give voice to their shared work of protecting their regions' natural resources.
This summer, fires began to rage in the Amazon—known as the “planet’s lungs” and responsible for producing 20% of the oxygen in the earth’s atmosphere—as a direct result of Brazilian president Jair Bolsorano’s weakening of environmental protections, which set the scene for mass deforestation.
Although the four activists have been vocal about the Amazon fires, their work cannot be distilled to a single event or cause. Nenquimo, Criollo, Piaguaje, and Maniguaje have all been involved in the fight against global warming for significant portions of their lives, and they face very real threats in order to do their work.
