Dry Streams in an Ocean of Eucalyptus: Community resistance to "green" steel, charcoal and biochar in Minas Gerais
Our latest podcast marks the International Day of Action Against Big Biomass, focusing on Brazil’s Jequitinhonha Valley, where steel company Aperam uses eucalyptus plantations for charcoal and carbon offsets. These plantations dry up water and disrupt local lives. Jana Uemura interviews researcher Karen Lang about how affected communities are resisting and reclaiming their lands. Produced by the Global Forest Coalition with BAN, EPN, HOME, and Biofuelwatch.
