Save Mabira Crusade oppose the government giveaway of 7100 hectares (over 17.100 acres) of Mabira Forest Reserve to the Sugar Corporation of Uganda, Ltd. (SCOUL), to clear cut and establish a sugarcane plantation. For the sake of private gain, this grant of free land would increase erosion, diminish fresh water supplies, destroy a cooling micro-climate and destroy habitats for hundreds of endangered species. It would also violate legal protections as stated in Ugandan law and international treaties and commitments.
More important, it would betray the expressed will of the Ugandan people
