In four days, threatened indigenous people will lead tens of thousands on the streets of Brazil in a massive call to Save the Amazon.

New changes to Brazil’s forest laws could open large parts of the Amazon to complete destruction, but a strong global outcry now could make a difference and persuade President Dilma to veto the changes. 

Over 740,000 of us have joined the global campaign — let’s reach one million now. Sign the petition here and send this to everyone — our numbers will be boldly displayed on banners at the front of the march:
