Call on the Indian Government to stop Vedanta's expansion plans

“We used to bathe in the river but now I am scared of taking my children there. Both my sons have had rashes and blisters.” - Orissa resident

An alumina refinery operated by UK-based Vedanta Resources in Orissa, India, is causing air and water pollution that threatens the health of local people.

Now the indigenous communities face the prospect of an expansion to the refinery as well as the development of a new mine nearby that will further endanger the health of the community, as well as their cultural traditions.

Take action now to stop these plans and ensure the continued health and livelihood of those who would be affected.
