Dear Friends, Activists, and Environmentalists,

COLOMBIA urgently needs your help. The Colombian Ministry of
Environment issued a license for an open-pit coal mine in the town of
Dibuya in the state of La Guajira, Colombia. The communities in the
area have exhausted all the legal options and the Supreme Court of
Colombia is expected to rule on the permit in the next two weeks. The
prospective coal mine operators will be the Brazilian corporation MPX.
This project is a complete assault against the environment, the
communities of the region, and particularly to the indigenous peoples
who depend on the land for their culture and their socio-economic
subsistence. The legacy of the mining will be toxic
chemicals--chromium, mercury, cadmium, lead and arsenic, pollution,
and water contamination as well as a giant gaping open wound on the
land.

There are only 2 weeks left before the Supreme Court of Colombia
decides over this project.

Please support the at-risk Colombian communities--places considered
sacred by the indigenous people.

Please click on this link:

you oppose the mine and and the erosion of the rights of indigenous
groups for the sake of fossil fuel extraction which will only heap
further damage on the planet’s climate. Stop the construction of the
"Puerto Carbonífero MPX" in La Guajira. This project is an attack on
the communities, the environment, public health and safety, as well as
the rights of indigenous peoples of Colombia.
