The Monte
Elizabeth Darby, Buzzworm July/Aug 1990
Monte Photographs © Terrence Moore 1991 for Buzzworm terrencemoore.com For a pdf or physical copy of this article, please contact me. "To the indigenous people who have lived within the rainforest for six or seven millenia, the rainforest is called the Monte — they consider it their Mother. Where others see the rainforest as a sum of its parts — once a cache of wealth from rubber and now a vast source of treasured lumber, gold and oil — for the indigenous people the rainforest is greater than just anyone element. They say, without her, the indigenous people shall die. And so they protect her. . . ."

Environment as National Security
"They are the people who live on the edge of society, yet on whom the basic workings of society rely. They are the workers — those who pick crops, perform manual labor, mine the energy supply— whose livelihoods depend on the very work that threatens the health and life of their families and themselves. Generally disenfranchised and impoverished, they are not white middle-class America but rather they are those who provide the white middle-class with the accoutrements of American wealth. . . With Reaping America's Unseemly Harvest, we begin a profile of three regions of the nation where the cycle of pollution and poverty continues, but the residents are no longer silent."

"Despite the 'orphaned infant' argument dealers use, a legitimate question for African governments and the research community is which market is driving the capture and trade: bush-meat or export for research?"
