Description of Pictures: NATURAL RESOURCES/UNNATURAL RESULTS: ACCESS, EXPLOITATION AND ACCOUNTABILITY
Films and Panel Discussion to Mark World Water Day
Reception Follows Program
PERU'S GOLD RUSH (Peru, 2011, 9 min.) In the Madre de Dios region of Peru, a virgin rainforest is losing ground to unrestricted wildcat gold mining. (Filmmaker Stephen Sapienza will also screen excerpts from his current Pulitzer Center project on water and sanitation in West Africa, focused on issues of accountability and sustainability.) Produced for PBS NewsHour by Emmy Award Winner Stephen Sapienza.
GUERRILLA MINING IN GUIANA'S MIDST (French Guiana, 2011, 5 min.) Soaring gold prices have lured Brazilians to illegal gold mines in the deep jungle of French Guiana. French police have waged a sporadic, largely unsuccessful effort to shut them down. Produced for Harper’s by Narayan Mahon.
THE DARK SIDE OF COLOMBIA'S GOLD RUSH (Colombia, 2011, 4 min.) Colombia’s gold rush pits local subsistence miners against large corporate interests, criminal gangs and the police. Produced for GlobalPost by Nadja Drost.
GHANA: OIL BOOM, FISHING FEARS (Ghana, 2011, 4 min.) The traditional fishing village of
Abuesi, in western Ghana, awaits with trepidation the possible repercussions for their community of oil
discoveries just offshore. Produced for iWatch by Christiane Badgley.
THE PENAN OF BORNEO (Malaysia, 2011, 4 min.) The Penan people are little in stature, little in number and little in the eyes of the government. Former nomads, they are now on the frontline of an uphill struggle to save the last unprotected rainforest of Sarawak from rapidly expanding palm oil plantations. Produced by James Whitlow Delano.
Discussion follows screenings with:
* Stephen Sapienza, filmmaker
* Nadja Drost, filmmaker
* Amol Mehra, Coordinator of the International Corporate Accountability Roundtable
* Daniel Baer, Deputy Assistant Secretary, U.S. State Department Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor
* Jon Sawyer, Executive Director, Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting (Moderator)

Copyrights: All pictures were taken by amateur photographer Bruce Guthrie (me!) who retains copyright on them. Free for non-commercial use with attribution. See the [Creative Commons] definition of what this means. "Photos (c) Bruce Guthrie" is fine for attribution. (Commercial use folks including AI scrapers can of course contact me.) Feel free to use in publications and pages with attribution but you don't have permission to sell the photos themselves. A free copy of any printed publication using any photographs is requested. Descriptive text, if any, is from a mixture of sources, quite frequently from signs at the location or from official web sites; copyrights, if any, are retained by their original owners.

Accessing as Spider: The system has identified your IP as being a spider.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

2012 photos: Trips this year: three Civil War Trust conferences (Shepherdstown, WV, Richmond, VA, and Williamsburg, VA), a week-long family reunion cruise of the Caribbean, another week-long family reunion in the Wisconsin Dells (with lots of in-transit time in Ohio and Indiana), and my 7th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including side trips to Zion, Bryce, the Grand Canyon, etc). Ego strokes: I had a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post. I had a photograph of the George Segal San Francisco Holocaust memorial used as the cover of Quebec Francais (issue 165). Not being able to read French, I'm not entirely sure what the article is about but, hey! And I guess what could be considered to be a positive thing, my site is now established enough that spammers have noticed it and I had to block 17,000 file description postings for Viagra and whatever else.. Equipment this year: My mainstays were the Fuji S100fs, Nikon D7000, and the new Fuji X-S1. I also used an underwater Fuji XP50 and a Nikon D600. The first three cameras all broke this year and had to be repaired. Number of photos taken this year: just below 410,000.
