Oil spill in Veracruz

A fisherman spills oil found in the margins of the the Coatzacoalcos river into a bucket in in the state of Veracruz on January 7, 2012. Greenpeace traveled in the zone affected by the oil spill in El Polvorín, in Cosoleacaque, Veracruz, that has contaminated at least 12 km of the Coatzacoalcos River. Local fishermen contracted to clean the disaster have not been paid for these activities and work under risk conditions for their health, breathing the hydrocarbon steam during more than twelve hours daily.(Photo: Greenpeace / Prometeo Lucero)
