Guarani have urged Coca-Cola to stop buying sugar from US food giant Bunge, which has been implicated in this landgrabbing scandal.
The Guarani of Jata Yvary community warn the sugarcane invasion, for Brazil’s booming biofuels industry, is seriously harming them. They say, ‘We want to preserve the forest but [outsiders] are destroying it, and illegally making money from it.’
Please email the CEO of Bunge Brazil urging the company to stop buying sugarcane from Guarani land immediately (template letter and details provided).
