Belo Monte: It's not too late!

A spot I wrote and created for Amazon Watch, and their struggle against the Belo Monte Dam project. I've been to the area in question a few times now, and it is one of the loveliest in the Amazon. The idea of flooding this area and uprooting the lives of those who call this part of the Amazon home is simply criminal. As one poster on another site put it to the politicians in Brazil: "How would you like it if we came to your home and put a forest in it".
