Indigenous Tribes Protest Dam Construction In Brazil's Amazon

SAO LUIZ DO TAPAJOS, BRAZIL - NOVEMBER 26: A Munduruku indigenous tribe members rides on a boat on the Tapajos River during the "Caravan of Resistence" protests in opposition to plans to construct a hydroelectric dam on the river in the Amazon rainforest on November 26, 2014 near Sao Luiz do Tapajos, Para State, Brazil. The Munduruku live traditionally along the river and depend on fishing and the river system for their livelihood. The 8.040- MW Sao Luiz do Tapajos mega-dam is one of a series of five dams planned in the region that will flood indigenous lands and national parks including Munduruku villages. The tribe has begun demarcating its ancestral boundaries with GPS devices ahead of the construction after the government has failed to do so. The United Nations climate conference is scheduled to begin December 1 in neighboring Peru. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
