Brazil: Keep Deutsche Bahn out of Amazonia!
A destructive rail and port project is taking shape in the Amazon region of Brazil. Germany’s national railway, Deutsche Bahn (DB), is involved. If realized, millions of tons of soy and iron ore will be exported to China, Europe and the USA. The people of Brazil, the rainforest and the coastal mangroves will suffer.

Our Planet ~ Coastal Seas

'Our #coastal #seas are a #rich #community of #plants and #animals #working #together, all of which are #vital to the #health of our #planet and #humanity. From fearsome #sharks to lowly #urchins, 90 percent of #marine #creatures live in coastal #waters. #Protecting these #habitats is a battle humanity must win. Coastal seas count for 7% of our #ocean, yet they are responsible for 95% of the #world’s marine #production – these are our #planet’s #fishing #grounds. Despite their importance to humanity, few are protected. Yet wherever effective #protection #exists, #life bounces back in #huge #abundance. The #wildlife will #thrive, and we will catch more #fish.'
