(Earth) - Ecological Internet’s Earth Action Network reports two stunning victories in campaigns to promote global ecological sustainability. Colombia’s Constitutional Court has declared their Forestry Bill unenforceable [original alert] because it treats forests only as wood, and indigenous and black peoples that have protected forests for decades were not consulted [1]. And French President Sarkozy has announced gold mining activity by a Canadian company in French Guiana’s rainforests [original alert] been permanently cancelled [2]. We had earlier reported progress on these measures.

These decisive victories come as Ecological Internet (EI) has recently reported important initial success in helping to freeze oil palm development in Woodlark, Papua New Guinea; ending rainforest timber use for park benches in NYC; and keeping ancient timbers out of Ocean City, New Jersey’s boardwalks and in rainforest canopies [3]. Efforts continue to finalize and expand these recent initial strategic victories. Ecological Internet’s ecological science based environmental advocacy continues to prove itself time and time again.
