THE NORTHEAST OF BRAZIL NEEDS HELP! We are living an Enviromental chaos, neglected by the Brazilian Government!

187 regions of the Northeast have been hit already. 12 conservation areas have been polluted. The population is taking out 30 shades of oil from the sea per day BY THEMSELVES! We need food, water, equipment to take the oil and grease.

Lives are ending in the Oceans! Many coral reefs, animals, the entire ecosystem dying at the hands of human greed and ambition. We, social and environmental activists cannot allow this to continue. Please HELP US!

“Thousands of people have taken part in a huge clean-up operation to remove oil and tar from beaches along Brazil's north-eastern coast.

Volunteers, as well as government workers, used wheelbarrows, spades and plastic gloves to remove the thick tar from the sand and water.

The source of the spill, which was first detected on 2 September, remains a mystery.

Experts say this could be the worst disaster for the region's coral reefs.

It has affected wildlife and popular beaches including Praia do Futuro in Ceará, Maragogi in Alagoas, and Itacaré and Ilhéus in Bahia.

At least 15 sea turtles, two seabirds and one fish have been found dead, the environmental agency Ibama said”.
