Defender la vida (Jmaktik buch’utik sk’anik spojik jkuxlejaltik)

The statement contrasts the essential services provided by natural forests—such as food, water, and medicine—with the destructive impact of plantations, which are described as eliminating these resources and threatening community life.

• Natural forests are essential for community survival, providing critical resources including food, water, construction materials, animal shelter, medicine, pollinators, firewood, honey, and recreation, ultimately representing 'life'.
• The establishment of plantations leads to the total loss of essential resources, specifically resulting in the disappearance of water, food, shelter, medicine, agriculture, firewood, and recreation, meaning there is 'no life'.
• The document concludes with a direct demand to stop the creation of plantations.
