Guatemala: Demand justice for Environmental Activist and Human Rights Defender! - ONLINE PETITION

Friends of the Earth
     "Rigoberto was a 28-year old schoolteacher and indigenous activist. He was shot outside of a courthouse just one day after a court ordered the palm oil company to suspend operations due to a huge spill of palm oil waste. He had been among the first to report a massive fish die-off from the polluted water.
     It is absolutely unacceptable that activists like Rigoberto put their lives at risk when they stand up to Big Polluters. We must demand justice for Rigoberto now!"
