Amazon Watch Campaign
In August 2002, Amazon Watch launched the Clean Up Ecuador Campaign to support the demands of indigenous and farming communities affected by the operations of Texaco (now Chevron) in the Ecuadorian Amazon.
The campaign's three principal demands of Chevron are that the company:
- Fund and implement a major environmental clean-up
- Compensate local communities for health and environmental impacts
- Provide affected communities with real access to health care and potable water
