On this week’s show we reported on the call of the Movement of Dam Affected People for the release of 4 activists arrested while they were occupying the premises of Tucuri dam, in Brazil.

We talked about the resistence of the communities of Bajo Lempa in El Salvador to the impacts of climate change and the upcoming 2nd International Meeting of the MOVIAC. Finally, we interviewed Ann Mayens, Campaigner at Action for Solidarity, Environment, Equality and Diversity.

She told us about their campaign against soy expansion in South America, and also about the greenwashing of the Roundtable on Responsible Soy (RTRS).

The RTRS will meet in Campinas, Brazil this week, where they will present the advances related to the international standard for “responsible” soy.
