Description:
Mainly in Eskuara/Basque Language

Ekologistak Martxan somos una asociación de personas, que compartimos una visión similar sobre los problemas ambientales que vivimos en Euskal Herria.

Formamos parte del ecologismo social, esto es, aquel que entiende que el origen de los problemas ambientales está en la forma de producción y consumo, cada vez más globalizado y del que se derivan otros problemas sociales: relaciones Norte-Sur, la desigualdad social en nuestra sociedad…

  • Realizamos campañas de sensibilización, denuncias públicas o legales contra aquellas actuaciones que dañan el medio ambiente, a la vez que elaboramos alternativas concretas y viables en cada uno de los ámbitos en los que desarrollamos nuestra actividad.
  • Somos una organización plural, asamblearia, e independiente de cualquier partido político, institución pública o privada realizando nuestra labor de forma voluntaria. Para hacer más eficaz nuestro trabajo y seguir garantizando nuestra independencia

Necesitamos de tu ayuda y de tu participación

Description:
“Terra preta” (black soils in Portuguese) are fertile anthropogenic soils found in the Amazon basin. They are recognized by abundant presence of charcoal resulting in their dark color, high amounts of phosphorus and calcium, and signs of human influence (e.g. high quantities of pottery sherds). These soils are also known as Amazonian Dark Earth (ADE), "Terra Preta do Indio" (in Portuguese) or "tierras negras" (in Spanish).
 
These soils are remnants of ancient, pre-Columbian societies and were generally created between 3000 and 500 years BP, with the earliest report being 5000 years BP (Meggers & Miller, 2006). These soils were abandoned after the European colonization (Smith, 1980; Woods et al. 2000), probably because Amerindian populations declined by 90 percent within 100 yr after European contact (Hemming 1978). It has been (conservatively) estimated that terra preta currently cover 0.1-0.3% of the Amazon area. The recent estimate by Sombroek et al. (2003) is an order of magnitude higher, reaching 1%. On the other hand, the estimates done by Balée (1989) are much higher: he suggested that Amerindian agriculture, forest and soil management had significantly modified as much as 12% of the Amazon basin.
