Lima, Sep 30 (EFE).- To protect some 35 million hectares of Amazon rainforest, the main indigenous organizations of Ecuador and Peru launched Thursday their own alternative development plan that seeks to leave oil and gas underground.The area, called by the natives as Cuencas Sagradas or Sacred Basins, comprises a wide water network originating in the glaciers of the Andes of Ecuador and Peru.The water descends to form innumerable rivers, feeding the Amazon, which hosts the most biodiverse ecosystems in the world and regulates the climate of the entire planet.
