AUN CUANDO...

 

Aun cuando alguien no quisiera por alguna razón ...
Aun cuando se hiera el bosque amazónico...
Aun cuando se intervenga la Gran Sabana y el majestuoso Parque Nacional Canaima,
Aun cuando los tepuyes, montañas sagradas, vigilantes de Guayana, no salgan de su asombro..
Aun cuando se ponga en peligro y riesgo a los habitantes indígenas y campesinos
Aun cuando selvas, ríos y sabanas desaparezcan ...
Aun cuando el Delta del Orinoco y el Golfo de Paria se conviertan en otro contaminado "Lago de Maracaibo"...
Aun cuando se mueran peces y peligre la seguridad alimentaría del pais...
Aun cuando no podamos bañarnos en las Playas y rios por los derrames y la contaminación...
Aun cuando todo el país lo atraviesen peligrosas redes de tuberías, refinerías, plantas, bombas, carreteras, puertos, centrales de bombeo, torres, plataformas ...
Aun cuando los derrames amenacen la calidad de las aguas y la vida marina...
Aun cuando el riesgo sísmico y los huracanes conviertan las plataformas petroleras y las tuberías de gas y petroleo en una gran amenaza
Aun cuando sean irreversibles los daños a la naturaleza
Aun cuando se deshielen los casquétes polares...
Aun cuando el cambio climático acabe con la vida en el planeta...

EL PRESIDENTE AFIRMA QUE...“…Aun cuando alguien no quisiera por alguna razón ...ese gasoducto habrá de ser construido. Aún cuando alguien no quisiera construir el gasoducto hacia Buenos Aires, que hemos anunciado allá en Ciudad Guayana, desde el Caribe hasta Buenos Aires, unos 6 mil kilómetros, un megagasoducto, ...habrá que construirlo (…) es un poco la propuesta que hemos hecho del cono energético suramericano, por una parte Caracas-Buenos Aires, y el Cono Energético Andino, porque tendremos que buscar conexión, estoy seguro (…) hacer una verdadera estructuración energética a toda Suramérica”.
(HUGO RAFAEL CHÁVEZ FRÍAS. 24 de noviembre de 2005. PRENSA PRESIDENCIAL / Marynés Ladera Castillo)

 EVEN THOUGH

Even though anybody may not want it for some reason...

Even though the Amazon may yet  get another big stabbing in its wounded heart...
Even though our Great Savanna and the majestic Canaima National Park get intervened...
Even though our tepuyes, sacred mountains, sentinels of Guayana don’t get over their shock...
Even though natives and farmers may be placed in danger...
Even though forests, rivers and savannah may disappear....
Even though the Orinoco Delta and Gulf of Paria may become another polluted “Lake of Maracaibo”......
Even though fish may die and national food  security may be put in jeopardy.....
Even though we may not be able to bath in the beaches and rivers cause of hydrocarbons spills and pollution.....

Even though our whole country may get crossed by dangerous pipeline networks, refineries, power plants, pumping systems,

terminals, towers, rigs, platforms...

Even though the spills may threaten the quality of water as well as sea life...

Even though earthquakes and hurricanes may convert oil and gas platforms  and pipelines into a big threat...

Even though damages to Nature may be irreversible...

Even though the polar ice caps are melting down...

Even though climate change may ruin life in the planet...

"The great gas pipeline will go forward”...so the Head of government has sentenced ...

“Even though anybody for some reason may not want it....., that gas pipeline must be built... Even though anybody might not want that gas pipeline towards Buenos Aires we’ve announced out of Ciudad Guayana, from the Caribbean to Buenos Aires, ...it must be built (...) That’s the proposal we’ve made for a South American Energy Cone, on the one hand Caracas-Buenos Aires, on the other an Andean Energy Cone,..cause we have to make that connection, I am certain (...) to accomplish a full energy structuring of the whole of South America”.

The "Sociedad de Amigos en Defensa de la Gran Sabana" [Society of Friends in the Defense of the Grand Savanna] is a nonprofit civic association, organized in April 1986 for the preservation, conservation and defense of the ecological and cultural patrimony of the Grand Savanna, the Canaima National Park (Land of Tepuis), the Basin of the Caroni river, and of any other areas in the Guayanese Massif. We likewise join our efforts in the struggle to the respect the rights of the Indigenous Peoples who inhabit these ancestral territories and we support their efforts in defending them and their ancient culture.

We have joined this cause due to a profound love of nature and because of our conviction that the respect of the natural world and the laws of ecology is one of the primary means of fostering the well-being and survival of humanity. AMIGRANSA consists of a group of professionals from different disciplines, youths, students and a wide network of collaborators including residents of the Grand Savanna, scientists and other lovers of nature. The work of AMIGRANSA is strictly based on volunteer participation.
