IT does not start for six months, but the accumulation of the annual United Nations annual conference is already in implementation in Brazil. Hosting tens of thousands of delegates who make a trip is a major pledge for any city. But the decision to host COP30 in BilimWhen the Amazon River escapes, complications are doubled.
After three consecutive policemen in the incandescent nations, the declared goal of the COP30 chair, Andraan Aran Cora de Lago, is to make this year’s event an exhibition of civil society, including the original groups and Forest defenders Those who play such a vital role in preservation. But the lack of affordable prices and other infrastructure, as well as the distance that must be traveling to reach the Amazon port, means that this ideal that deserves praise will be difficult to realize.
Dom Phillips book after his death, How to save the Amazon: The deadly search for the journalist to obtain answersIt is a convincing reminder of what is at stake. Almost three years since then killing Along with Bruno Pereira, a Brazilian government employee whose job was to monitor groups of isolated indigenous indigenous. The husband was on the way back from a journey to the distant Javari Valley. The search and investigation were initially fragmented. Two men will be tried for killing later this year.
Philips and Perira understood the risks they fought, struggling to document the destruction that was happening at the time. Between 2019 and 2023, in light of the extremist right of Jeer Bolsonaro, progress in preserving rainforests went to the opposite of sharpness and The areas that are made rapidly grew. The illegal shots, miners and livestock breeders effectively had Blanche, as agencies in charge of facing environmental regulations were weakened and resolved. During the same period, it was encouraged by the approach of the government of Laissez-FAire, Competition between drug dealers On intense profit smuggling methods. Because of its dimension, the Javari Reserve, near the border with Peru, became a major battlefield.
During the President Lula, the situation stabilized. The Minister of Environment, Marina Silva, is the right person to supervise the government Politicity of Zero Forest Removal By 2030, but you plan for Expand the production of fossil fuels in the country It is impossible to get with these environmental goals. The risk of global heating and the removal of the forests is the death of the mass From rainforest, which leads to the release of vast carbon stores, scientists still bother. At the same time, Doubts grow About if the deadline for this year will be fulfilled to obtain a certificate for a series of cow meat supply with free cases of deforestation. Under strong international pressure, JBS, the largest meat company in the world, places new systems in place. But the huge number of farmers (Brazil has a herd of 240 meters), terrain, land registration, and the systems that have been prepared Diaphtalyst checksIt means the risk of success is not high.
The global lights should focus on the forest at least minds. The Amazon’s biological diversity, and its climate planning role, makes it very important to lose it. The original defenders, some of whom work with Pereira and Phillips, continue the vital work of defending the scene that is their home. The journalist’s book, which his friends have accomplished, shows a urgency to support their courageous efforts.
