Deep in the Amazon, along Peru-Brazil border, lies proposed Yavarí-Tapiche Corridor: 16 million hectares of intact forest sheltering world's highest concentration of Indigenous peoples living in isolation. But threats (oil/gas, mining/logging, highways, narcos) are closing in, new report shows.

38% of community forests overlapped by oil & gas concessions in the Congo Region. 99% of Cuvette Centrale Peatland community forests are under oil threat, that is 30 billion tons of carbon at stake. earth-insight.org/report/iplc-th… #TheAnswerIsUs #IndigenousRights

In the Amazon Basin, oil and gas blocks cover 31 million hectares (12%) of Indigenous territories, while mining and logging threaten millions more hectares of critical rainforest. 64% of Waorani territory is overlapped by oil blocks despite court rulings. #TheAnswerIsUs

43.2M hectares of the Amazon’s Indigenous territories are threatened by oil, gas, and mining. 64% of Waorani territory is overlapped by oil blocks despite court rulings. IPs & LCs safeguard the forests that sustain life on Earth. #TheAnswerIsUs #theAmazon #IndigenousRights

A new report reveals how two controversial oil exploration blocks now overlap more than half of Conkouati-Douli National Park's terrestrial area and nearly 90% of its wetlands earth-insight.org/insight/oil-co…

"El fin de las reservas nacionales presiona para aumentar las licencias de exploración y producción tras las elecciones de 2026. Nuestra investigación muestra que no hay justificación económica ni de seguridad energética para aumentar la producción y exploración en la Amazonía". @Nacho_arroniz, de @Earth_Insight #AmazoníaSinHidrocarburos

New report by @Earth_Insight, @IISD_Energy, and @OPIAC_Amazonia calls on the Colombian gov’t to shelve unassigned oil blocks to safeguard its IPLCs, contribute to global climate safety, & consolidate Colombia’s environmental leadership. @OTCAnews earth-insight.org/report/colombi…

With the energy transition accelerating, research warns new oil expansion in Colombia’s Amazon is unlikely to break even. Shelving unassigned blocks would reduce financial risk, help to diversify the economy, & advance 🇨🇴’s climate leadership. Report: earth-insight.org/report/colombi…
