Description
For the first time, Ecuador's Indigenous guards gather in the Amazon volunteering to defend their territories against oil and mining exploitation and poaching. They fear for the integrity of their territories because of mining exploitation and plans by Guillermo Lasso's conservative government to double oil production. These communities have been dealing with pollution from oil spills for years, the most recent one last January, when a ruptured pipeline let out 6,300 barrels. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
