Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Natural resource extraction often involves significant changes to the landscape through activities such as clear cutting, drilling, and mining. This can disrupt traditional indigenous ways of life and have harmful environmental consequences on the land. Additionally, when temporary "man camps" are set up to support resource extraction, crimes such as rape and abduction of indigenous women increase. These camps also often exclude indigenous women from employment opportunities. Water bottle contamination (option C) is not necessarily linked to indigenous lands and bodies, and the exclusion of indigenous women from "man camps" (option D) is a specific example of the broader theme of exploitation of indigenous bodies that is closely linked to the exploitation of indigenous lands.
