In 2006 a Soy Moratorium Pledge for the Amazon was signed by different parties. This means that he soya industry has temporarily stopped buying produce from newly-deforested areas in the Amazon, but permanent protection is not guaranteed. A Soya Working Group was created to support the implementation of the moratorium. Members include soya traders such as Bunge, Cargill, ADM and Amaggi, as well as NGOs including Greenpeace, Conservation International, TNC, IPAM and WWF.
These pictures are an edit taken from a 10 day Amazon expedition in 2013 to report on the Soy Moratorium Pledge. All pictures are taken by Greenpeace photographer John Novis.
