Daily life along the pipeline Sote


Like a snake, Sote streaks from the rain forest in the Amazon, through the Andes, to the coast of Ecuador. Sote is an oil pipeline, carrying the black gold from the jungle city Lago Agrio to the port town of Esmeralda, at the Pacific coast. The oil extraction has brought tremendous impact on the environment and wildlife, and many people living near the mining are having problems with their health.
