Oil spill in Veracruz
Fishermen collect bags with oil recovered from the Coatzacoalcos river, 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)
