Hello All. I have been busy on our Ecuador project where we are working to stop mining in the Upper Amazon. Silviu is in Quito and is collating facts for a movie.

One of the Shuar has been murdered by Government forces which has inspired a meeting of the Indigenous Tribes this weekend. We have been able to help financially and I am looking at setting up a Micro Financial Support System for the Shuar.

We have another movie making friend from Sweden going down to Gualaquiza today.

Here in El Rio, all is well. We had 5.6 liters of rain per square meter the night before last. We are waiting for more and at present it does not look likely. Our total for the last 11 months is 116 litres per square meter. !!

OK Time for some pictures:
