最近在亚马孙西部进行的生物多样性研究强调了道路建设、森林砍伐和土著土地丧失之间的联系。许多观察家得出结论，油气生产不可避免地意味着森林的破坏和土著领土的征用。然而，来自厄瓜多尔东部低地（被称为Oriente）的证据表明，石油可以在没有道路或有害影响的情况下开发。《东方报》还提供了另一个对比案例：在没有发现石油的地区，政府经常修建道路来支持其农业殖民化努力。在这些地区，发生了大量毁林和土著人流离失所的情况。这类证据表明，一套不同的农业和环境政策可能会允许石油活动，而不会损失雨林或土著领土。
Recent biodiversity research in the Western Amazon has emphasized the linkages among road construction, deforestation and loss of indigenous lands. Many observers have concluded that hydrocarbon production inevitably means destruction of forests and expropriation of native territory. Yet evidence from the eastern lowlands of Ecuador (known as the Oriente) shows that oil can be developed without roads or harmful impacts. The Oriente also provides another contrasting case: in areas where no oil was discovered, the government often built roads to support its agricultural colonization efforts. In these areas, a great deal of deforestation and indigenous displacement occurred. Such evidence suggests that a different set of agrarian and environmental policies might permit oil activity without loss of rain forest or indigenous territory.
