Abstract

This article, titled "Nemonte Nenquimo," discusses the importance of protecting the Amazon rainforest from oil drilling. The author, a Waorani leader, expresses frustration at the question of why it is important to protect their home, likening it to questioning the importance of protecting one's own home from destruction. The author emphasizes the deep connection the Waorani people have with the forest, which provides them with food, medicine, and cultural resources. They argue that the destruction of the Amazon through oil drilling will have severe consequences for the planet and call for respect for Indigenous peoples' rights and the environment.
