about and already you hear the reports about m.p.'s meeting to try and figure out ways they can stop the government taking us to no deal what we don't know because we've had so little time to watch boris johnson interact with parliament we only have one day before the recess is whether sufficient numbers of conservative m.p.'s will be willing to take that ultimate step of voting the government down to try and stop no deal and fraught autumn of politics lies ahead jonah how al-jazeera london . and if you're a from the t.v. why not check out the web site al-jazeera dot com for more on our top story the latest out of kashmir. this is al jazeera these are the top stories pakistan is expelling the indian ambassador and cutting back trade as relations deteriorate with its neighbor over the disputed territory of kashmir indian security forces have arrested around 500

and el paso more news on the web site it's always there for dot com up next is the stream i'm back after that with 30 minutes of al-jazeera world news hopefully i will see you very soon. we. give to the people who will be attending the workshop we listen i'm supposed to explain apologize for someone who is also terrorizing we meet with global newsmakers and talk about the stories that matter is iraq. ok and i'm awake and you're in the stream today why are environmental activists attack we will discuss a new report that looks at the threats faced by the founders of the land and its resources how are environmental activists treated in your country you can tell us via twitter or in our live chat. everyone money was burned.

from sometimes movement you are in the stream. last year at least $164.00 environmental activists around the world were killed and countless more was silenced from violent attacks intimidation or unfair. that is according to a new report by the u.k. based human rights group global witness the report examined 19 countries and found that most of the killings were of activists who spoke out against the mining industry people protesting hydro power projects and land disputes with business will also met with deadly attacks the report also highlights the threats indigenous communities in particular face from resource extraction industries. and the growing trend by governments to label environmental protect us as terrorists so when this episode will look at the struggles faced by environmental activists and ask what should be done to protect their work with us to talk about this via skype in london

heather is senior communications advisor with global witness and sao paulo carlos riddle he's the executive secretary of the brazilian climate observatory a coalition of civil society organizations and in manila victoria. the un special rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples she is an indigenous leader from the can people in the philippines welcome to the stream all of you i want to start with the expertise of some of our community members because our viewers know what they're talking about so the philippines noted in this tweet from leon here is the deadliest country in the world right now for environmental defenders and he explains in his view why his organization recorded a total of 223 filipino environment defenders killed from 2001 to 2008 he says 58.3 percent of them were involved in anti mining activity followed by

opponents of agribusiness the presence of these extractive industries is by far the biggest driver of bile and against defenders but he goes on to say this is interesting victoria he says these brave martyrs stood in defense of more than 2600000 hectares of land and seascapes the majority of beings came from indigenous people and farmers resisting land grab so indigenous peoples and farmers this sounds like a big umbrella when we say environmental defenders who are we talking about when it comes to the philippines. well we're talking about 15000000 indigenous peoples and of course but maybe more than that a bigger number of farmers so they call they also. there are indigenous peoples are also farmers so so it's nation of 2 groups of people who are basically working the land depending on the land and surviving on. heather

i'm just looking at the global witness report here enemies of the state question mark and what you did was take out just not the numbers and the rip reporting that you've seen of how many people have been attacked or died of being criminalized but you made it personal so that we as the international community could see what was happening i wanted us to do that all the way through the show said take us to guatemala a community that was protesting a dan tell us about that. absolutely. one of the key case studies covered in our part of it the story of neri and dimming esteban 2 brothers who were very violently killed and following that opposition that vocal opposition and peaceful protest a higher power and now that the people in that community to be killed linked to this and that community has been and continues to be intimidated threatened by

violence you know this hydropower the project with it we're polluting the was they were destroying food crops fish carps and to be honest causing a huge impact on the indigenous community i lived in that area so it's really stark and i'm quite a horrible example of of the shock and of these kind of attacks which can start with criminalization and intimidation and threats and sort of and. horrible killings cos i'm just thinking about some of the situations of these local communities airing it's the industry's coming into that environment losing their environment and then the protesting it's not as if that activists all pompous it's because something has been done to them for instance mo kerry poisoning tell us about the communities that are suffering from the complacent. i'll give you one

example that young will not mean indigenous groups this is found in the north or amazon brazilian amazon. is to make sure that there are 20000 legal minors within their legs. boys running dog. the reverse were you by using mary and some of the healthy institutes in brazil west to make that more than 50 percent of the young no money population is contaminated with america really do they use of 4 of this substance for gold mining and we're speaking about 20000 people by illegal establishing this. i'm also thinking about indigenous people who are so often in there in areas where there is mining there's hydro electricity. extraction and i wanted to share with you one story and how the indigenous community there are trying to fight that so we go to brazil for that and

an indigenous tribes and in this case you'll hear from the locals the hell they're managing when there's logging in the area have a look. but when i got together and organized a team to protect the territory we were worried and are worried about future generations and about the isolated tribes that we have never seen our grandparents told us that there were people there and that they need protection also they said that these people need us they need the forest and we need the forest for the issue most to see the forest. victoria are you finding its indigenous communities that are suffering the most from the lands being encroached upon. yes i do find that especially because we know. people that they have been meeting in different parts of the world at the ones who really are. the kinds of development that we

see like my knee as well as expansion of cultural. and also big infrastructure projects that are usually pushed by the government so. these are highly wallner of oil and in a big person they just. the ones who are killed as well are subject to fall screaming those charges and brought to a pretrial detention for many years so this is the picture that i've seen and i think that it's because of the fact that they were defending this land before and now with increasing decrease of land which will be exploited they are now. want to share this comment with out on you tube from someone watching this is a lizabeth who says environmental issues seem to be connected to class and race issues as well like in brazil growth scenario encouraging miners to invade

indigenous lands in brazil and claiming it to make these cultures modern so that's one take right there because you saw that earlier video from brazil but i want to move to a different part of the world and still keep this on indigenous communities because of course it's not just brazil want to share this coming from david gilbert he's a political politest talking about what communities in indonesia face have a listen. in places like indonesia and sumatra in particular the risks that indigenous peoples and smaller family farmers face as they seek to defend their lands forest and waters are very grave their industrial agriculture is especially violence and coersion to force people off the land in industry existing ecology state military work with agribusiness mercenaries and militia to murder a few of these people every year and thousands more are arrested but still these people these defenders of protectors are joining up by the hundreds of thousands in

unions and social mobilization organizations on the continue their struggle and tell these commodities are produced in a way that's free of bloodshed so how can he in that video on a hopeful note but in the comment he says that these communities are facing murder mercenaries and militias these are dangerous circumstances what recourse do they have especially when it comes to indigenous communities and the risks they're facing. yeah i mean i think it was i mean particularly inspiring to see. him from from the clip before from the indigenous community in brazil around how dabbing extremely active on mobilizing to protect not just their community but the communities around them and they feel the responsibility of that and i think. the really important thing here is that land environmental defenders are not just fighting for their own protections and fighting for all of you know when they protect the forests in that part of brazil and helping save the planet from climate

breakdown which is a huge issue as we know i so i think that's the 1st thing to say that you know not only are they facing these huge threat in the face of protecting their own land but they are also protecting the environment for all of it as and i think that in order for them continue to fight with success and you know we have seen in some cases numbers have fallen that might obscure the fact that there are still huge threats against london environmental defenders but you know people like victoria. of london to environment to defend themselves campaign groups and geos all of these people have been campaigning so hard and raising awareness and now it's up to all of us to stand with defenders and amplify their stories on that to kind of link into the sort of important intersectionality you talked about before and make sure that we're telling their stories and that where holding businesses and governments to

account so that they don't have to do that high on their right cos when you think about it it's outrageous that people living in their own country all know a lot. from outsiders and companies and industries coming in and. it's outrageous that that would even happen can you explain why. well at the edge of the to the up because this pressure the lack of law enforcement of the lack of the presence of the government of on the grounds of for example in many details lands on public lands in brazil and so it's the the duty from the federal government to protect those lands to prevent to that these lands i think they did by illegal miners like legal or worse and believe whenever this happens they should go there and and take this people out off of those lands.
