Belo Monte: Justice Now!

This past June, the Rio+20 Conference on Sustainable Development was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. President Dilma Rousseff had the nerve to talk about making "promises for the type of future that we want" through "growth, inclusion and protection," while at the same time doing everything in her power to push through construction of the destructive Belo Monte Dam in the Amazon -- without the approval of the tens of thousands of people who would be affected. But the people have taken the case to court, and will continue to do so as many times as they need to in order to stop the Belo Monte Dam and protect the Xingu River.
