To the leadership of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) :

We, citizens from around the world, are outraged by the ruthless encroachment on Mashco Piro lands by logging giants like Canales Tahuamanu. We demand that you take immediate action to revoke the certification of Canales Tahumanu and any other company threatening these Indigenous peoples and their sacred lands. Act now to protect the Mashco Piro tribe and preserve the Amazon before it's too late.

Save the Mashco Piro Tribe!
Time is running out for the Mashco Piro people. Their sacred lands are under siege by Maderera Canales Tahuamanu (MCT), a logging giant poised to dismantle their entire world.

Just a few years ago, the Yanomami faced a similar threat in the Amazon. Illegal miners ravaged their land, terrorized communities, and sparked a health crisis so severe that President Lula called it “genocide.” Hundreds, especially children, died from preventable diseases and malnutrition.

The devastation was so profound it sparked a global outcry. When Lula came to power, his government stepped in and stopped them.

MCT's encroachment on Mashco Piro territory could lead to a catastrophe of equal magnitude. We cannot allow history to repeat itself with the Mashco Piro.

Indigenous communities and experts are organizing against MCT, but they need our voices to make an impact. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) has the power to strip MCT of its certification, severing its access to global markets. Add your name now, and we will take our demands directly to FSC headquarters in Germany.
