REMINDER: The fight continues, the movement continues, our efforts continue.
Extraction practices continue! The lands, people, and animals are at risk. NV is in the process of creating one of the largest Lithium mining pits in the world.
We can’t continue accepting the green washing of land conservation. This is not protection.

Polluted soil & water from mining waste. These Contaminated resources effect local communities- especially reservations where for example, arsenic levels exceed safe standards.
Part of protecting the land & culture is getting to know it with respect to the caretakers and communities.
Environmental rights is Indigenous rights.
