Indigenous Ecuadoran woman humbles U.S. oil giant

A Ecuadorian grandmother takes on U.S. oil giant Chevron and wins money, but the land will be damaged for decades if not longer.

The most humbling part of this story is the amount of damage this oil company did to the area. The amount of illness that exploded after the environmental nightmare began.

It's hard for me to believe that there are people out there that still believe people can't affect the environment. This story is a prime example that we can and do.
