Read the Guardian interview by David Hill of E-Tech Chief Engineer Bill Powers, at a June oil industry conference, concerning oil company road building in the supposedly roadless and protected Yasuni-ITT region of Ecuador. There are very intense efforts to halt all oil exploitation in the region but the Ecuadoran government has at a minimum promised no roads although it appears corporate plans differ…….please pass this on. It follows the release of Matt Finer remote sensing photos in recent weeks.
