President Rafael Correa is in London still promoting his idea that Ecuador receive $3 billion NOT to allow oil drilling in a pristine Amazon reserve, the Yasuni National Park. Germany and Spain are reportedly interested.
"This is the first time the government of a major oil-producing country has voluntarily offered to forego lucrative oil extraction in order to help combat climate change," said Dr. Matt Finer, staff scientist for Save America's Forests and author of a study on Correa's initiative.
