#SavingCarbonSinks: Ecuadorian social #movements have bypassed pro-extractivist #politicians with a national #referendum to keep #oil from Block 43 also known as “Yasuní ITT,” a concession in the deepest part of the Amazonian protected Yasuní National #Forest, in the ground. While movements around the world have successfully achieved #mining moratoria, this is an important new strategy for #environmental and #Indigenous #rights activists.

It has come to light that #PrideToronto has, at time of publishing, willfully misdirected at least CA$2,850,000 of federal grant money that was meant for #Indigenous #artists. What's more, the various federal agencies who failed to prevent this have been unwilling to hold #PrideTO accountable.
Shout out to Tom Hooper for investigating this and making the results and sources public at pridegrants.ca.
