IB ESS HL 3.3.10 Hl Organization Success Factors Questions question 1

[Maximum number: 3]
Ken Saro-Wiwa, Ogoni environmental activist

Figure:Ken Saro-Wiwa, Ogoni environmental activist

Identify three reasons why the Ogoni people have been effective in campaigning against the environmental degradation of their land.

Figure:Ogoniland and the Ogoni people

A UN report on Ogoniland pollution called for a US$1\mathrm{US}\$1 billion clean-up fund. It found drinking water with dangerous benzene and other pollutants, soil contamination more than five metres deep, failure by oil companies to meet standards, and spill sites claimed to be cleaned still highly contaminated. The Ogoni people fish and farm yam and cassava, worship land and rivers as God, and protect certain animals. They set up an environmental pressure group in 1990; during their non-violent campaign, Ken Saro-Wiwa was arrested, tried and hanged in 1995, causing international outrage.
