Peru, Brazil to build $2 billion hydroelectric plant
Peru and Brazil are planning to build a US$2 billion hydroelectric plant near their border in Peru's southeastern jungle.
Environmentalists and indigenous groups have come together to condemn a 15 million US dollar plan for six hydroelectric dams in the Peruvian Amazon, signed last week by Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Peruvian President, Alan Garcia.
