This photographer went to the forests of Peru and found something difficult!

The story goes that Peru was once home to the most beautiful tropical forest in the world. These forests are inhabited Peru hundreds of years ago, but just some dozens. Jungle of this country are among the most densely populated in the world.

All this does not already exist. Instead, on the site of the once incredibly beautiful tropical forest, there is this:

These deserted hills once were a place where people searched for gold.



To find only some few grams of gold each worker used mercury. Because of that, it was easier to look for gold.

How you must have guessed, Mercury kills all living things. In addition, he settles deep in the earth for tens of meters, killing even the possibility of a future life.





This leaves nothing but a barren wasteland filled with illegal staratelyami.



Since the beginning of this venture, more than 370 square kilometers of forest were destroyed in the southeastern region of Madre de Dios.



Mercury poisoned the river.

Deforestation in Peru has affected about 40% of greenhouse gas emissions in the country, which undoubtedly contributes its considerable contribution to global warming. 35,681,408

And all for $ 1,000 a month, receiving illegal miners. 98,999,423

working shifts for 28 hours. 46,378,047

Since this means that many Peruvians are automatically lost their jobs turned serious carnage for the right to extract gold.

The War of rainforests now goes into full swing.

It destroys villages, people and the environment sredu.



In this war, there will be winners.

Illegal gold mining still exists in Peru, despite the efforts of the local police. All this destroys the rainforests, which appeared long before the world's population lyudmi.
