purchase Barrick judges and politicians but
glaciers and climate NOT sell
glaciers and climate NOT sell
around the world in environmental organizations and civil society to convene
"World Day against the Barrick Gold"
to report abuse of the company in mining exploration and open pit mining.
In Argentina, the Canadian multinational is the owner of the deposits of gold, silver and copper as the Veladero and Pascua Lama, located at 5,000 m. high in the Andes, in the territories of Chile and Argentina. Can exploit thanks to JI Mining Treaty that signed both nations in the 90's. From Argentina's mineral concentrates are exported to a global market increasingly voracious. In recent months
Barrick has undertaken a crusade against particular glaciers recently passed law introducing precautionary measures in San Juan arguing unconstitutionality. Its aim is to exploit the periglacial zone and thus affect the frozen ground that upholds the law. If we impose the action of Barrick the result would smuggle the impact that climate change is exerting on these ice-rich areas. Ignore the impacts of mining on these airlines would remove all credibility to claim that Argentina should do for global climate policy that stops global warming, the main cause of glacier shrinkage.
Given the progressive exhaustion of the richest deposits in the world the megaminería has imposed a system that is energy intensive to extract the scattered elements in the rock rather than concentrated in veins. Barrick and other mining mega consume much energy has been necessary to extend a special power line to meet the demand at a time when the country walked into the emergency supply. For this reason they are in a lot of the companies responsible for greater quantities of greenhouse gas emissions, the direct cause of climate change.
with open pit mining should be literally crushed mountains and turn them into huge piles of broken rock.
in Argentine territory the waste rock (waste rock and tailings) are deposited in places where for millions of years will be exposed to processes that release hazardous substances threatening all sources of water. This occurs at a time when water demand increases and la provisión esta amenazada por el cambio climático, en especial en nuestras aéreas mineras.
Barrick Gold : en Argentina NO
Es necesario revisar la concesión a Barrick y a toda la mega minería.
Es urgente la aplicación de la ley de protección de glaciares, las auditorias ambientales y dejar sin efecto las medidas cautelares.
Necesitamos tu firma para frenar a la Barrick
