I was one of approximately 500 Patagonia employess banging on cookware in opposition to the proposed construction of five mega-dams in Chile’s wild Aysén region. In Chile and other Spanish-speaking countries they call it a caceroloza – a stew-pot protest. I was in Ventura for our bi-annual sales meeting and the protest was organized because of Patagonia’s long abiding connection to the area that is its namesake.
