4. Fajardo, Pablo - Fighter for Environmental Justice (Broadcast Newsrooms)
   "Fajardo, 35, has been spearheading the legal team for the plaintiffs for several years, as they demand an environmental remediation from Chevron estimated to cost $6 billion. During nearly three decades of drilling in a vast, inhabited area of the Ecuadorian Amazon, Texaco dumped more than 18 billion gallons of toxic wastewater. Now, local communities are suffering a wave of cancers, stillbirths, and birth defects."
   
   "Born into extreme poverty, Fajardo only became a lawyer in 2004, after first working as a manual laborer, while completing a correspondence law degree. Now, in his first trial, Fajardo, who travels around by bicycle, finds himself confronting Chevron's team of highly-paid, extremely experienced lawyers."
   
   "Down the years, Fajardo appears to have paid a high price for his pursuit of justice. One of the friends who helped to pay for him to go through law school was murdered as was one of Fajardo's brothers, a Christian minister. Neither murder has been resolved by the Ecuadorian authorities." 12-07
