Patagonia Sin Represas: Patagonia Without Dams
Patagonia Sin Represas: Patagonia Without Dams
To keep Patagonia beautiful, it will take more than picking up litter. This pristine wilderness is threatened by a 5 dam proposal called HidroAysén that has tentacles all over the world--including huge US companies like Home Depot. This powerful company buys wood products from two Chilean companies that are deeply involved in plans for dams and transmission lines that would destroy Patagonian rivers, forests and communities.

Help us keep Patagonia beautiful by sending letters to the head of The Home Depot, and help us get hundreds of thousands more concerned citizens involved by becoming a fan of International Rivers on Facebook and then telling your friends. On our fan page you can sign up to receive our email alerts, see photos of Patagonia, and check out videos that tell the story of how Patagonia became a target for global profiteers--and how you have the power to stop them.

Thanks for spreading the word and joining the movement to save Patagonia!
