A Future without Oil

When President of Ecuador Rafael Correa announces in 2007 that he will not exploit its Amazonian oil fields against financial compensations on industrialized countries, he takes on a very bold move. The Challenge ? To convince them that the safeguard of nature worth more than petroleum extraction.
