You can often get the feeling that the world is very small. Everything is right at your fingertips and there is not much that is left which is unknown to us.
But, there are still things that are unknown, and dare I say that it should stay unknown and be dearly guarded from our inability to let things be.
In Peru there are some 15 tribes that are unknown to the public. These tribes are made up from nomadic, small family groups that move around frequently, with the common denominator that they all shun outsiders. Perhaps the faith of thousands of tribesmen in the past have not gone unnoticed to these last tribes on the earth..?
Just last October Indians were spotted from a plane in the south-eastern region of the Amazon rainforest.
“During the plane’s second pass, one of the Indian women, carrying arrows and accompanied by a small boy, gestured aggressively, whilst the rest of the group sought refuge in the undergrowth.” [source]
We should ask ourselves, why do they shun us so much?
Perhaps they simply know that contact with us will inevitable lead to their own extinction?
It is estimated that there are over 100 tribes around the world that choose to reject contact with the civilized world. Everyday they face dangers from logging companies trying to take their land, environmental pollution and diseases from which they have no natural immune defense. And not to mention the overwhelming culture clash from the apparent dangers of trying to be apart-of the civilized world.
As human beings we have a responsibility to them and ourselves to do what we can to help. We must because there are no one else that can. Many people understand that this is an age where there just isn’t much more room for mistakes.
These are the last true guardians of the Earth
and when they are gone - we are gone.

We need a cultural change towards the way we depend on and use the worlds natural resources, Big Companies and Governments must be held responsible for climate change and act swiftly to reverse the damage already done or we will lose the most magnificent natural wonders of the world.
