Brazil’s most popular TV station Globo, joins the Belo Monte Campaign
It seems like the campaign against the Belo Monte hydroelectric dam is gathering momentum and coming into the mainstream, in Brazil at least…
The most popular, widely available and famous TV station in Brazil: Globo, famous for its soap operas watched by a huge proportion of the population, has made a video for the people of Brazil talking about the affects of the dam, and why it’s important for everyone to think about and how they’ll be affected.
