Birds chirp near a river in the Ecuadorian jungle, five hours from the capital Quito, as Gregorio Mirabal expresses fear for the 500 tribes that often act as guardians of the Amazon rainforest and who face attacks, and even death, as a result.
Mirabel, the head of the Coordinator of Indigenous Organizations of the Amazon River Basin , calls on developed nations who will gather at the COP26 -- the climate conference in Glasgow, Scotland -- to collaborate with indigenous people to protect the 8.4 million square kilometers of the Amazon.
The other scenario that our children can bathe in this river, learn about what is here, see the trees, the biodiversity, see this macaw fly. This is the scenario we propose to the world if it helps us protect 80 percent of the Amazon.If Amazon deforestation reaches 20 percent, it will be very difficult to go back. The desertification, the lack of water, the fires will devastate the Amazon. We are at a turning point.
But there is no clear funding today in this sense. We don't know how much money has been invested in the Amazon, if it gets here and when.
