This book is VOL. 18. The Amazon is in peril! Identifying the areas and level of the destruction of its ecosystem is not simply an academic issue, nor should it be treated as such. Hundreds of thousands of indigenous natives of the Amazon rain forest have been displaced from their traditional lands due to political and economic conflicts between hostile forces in Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, Bolivia and Brazil. Indigenous communities have become marginalized by corrupt government policies and by war-driven forces, including narco-terrorists, unscrupulous national and international commercial interest and individual ignorance and arrogance. Yet, indigenous social mobilization is at its height, deriving their support from national and international NGO's, pro-active environmentalists groups such as the Greenpeace and individuals like you and I. The aim is to form a united front in the flight to save the rich biodiversity of the Amazon Rain forest and its inhabitants. This book and the entire Series is highly recommended for the whole family, environmentalists, elementary and middle school curriculum, community libraries and collectors of The Amazon Exploration Series.
