Module 2 Weblog #2

This is an American web site which has some very powerful images and interesting articles. I was looking for some information on mining and how governments place more importance on making enough money to carry out their policies than how their decisions affect indigenous groups when minerals are found on their land. One would imagine that in this century it would be possible to find a way to mine without taking away and often leaving untenable land which has belonged for centuries to indigenous communities. My only doubt about this site is that all of the information is in English. There are also some help groups and field projects but I didn’t find any links to read the information in an optional language.
