The Amazon is straining to survive amidst a historic drought -- yet the Brazilian president just joined the world's largest oil producers cartel and is moving to allow oil drilling in it!

Let's supercharge their call as leaders gather at the UN climate talks right now! Add your name and share everywhere:

Dear friends,

The Amazon is hit by a record-breaking drought, threatening the lives of over 500,000 people.

Major rivers reduced to a trickle, wreaking havoc on people and wildlife -- with hundreds of rare pink dolphins 'boiled' to death, wildfires raging uncontrollably and communities stranded without food and water.

These are the signs of Amazon collapse -- yet the Brazilian president just joined the world's largest oil producers' cartel and is looking to open it for drilling!

Hundreds of Indigenous groups are rising up to stop this, calling for the Amazon to become a fossil fuel non-proliferation zone -- with leaders gathering for the climate summit right now, let's supercharge their call.

Sign to push President Lula of Brazil and all world leaders to urgently stop new drilling in the Amazon, and beyond -- Avaaz will bring our voices straight to the negotiators:

President Petro of Colombia has just declared his support for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty -- a binding agreement that would commit nations to ending all new oil exploration and concretely transitioning away from fossil fuels forever.

World leaders everywhere must follow -- this is not just a battle for the Amazon but for all life.

The drought's immediate victims are the people of the Amazon. But it has far-reaching consequences as the rainforest releases its stocks of carbon dioxide, fuelling global warming -- what scientists say was a key factor behind the drought in the first place!

Right now at the world's top climate summit leaders like President Lula are under huge pressure to show that they're taking action. A huge, global call for a fossil fuel non-proliferation zone in the Amazon could be the push they need to change course -- add your name now!

The Amazon is a delicate ecosystem -- without the Amazon, we can't stop the climate crisis. Avaaz is bringing a powerful delegation of indigenous leaders to the climate summit to flood the talks and drown out the voices of the oil lobby. Let's support them with a million voices and take our call to stop oil drilling straight to the negotiators!
