Amazon deforestation for Cargill, and ADM
samedi 7 octobre 2023 à 12:34Two giant agricultural trading companies, Cargill and ADM, successfully campaigned to prevent a treaty that would stop sales of soy beans grown on deforested land.
That enabled deforestation to continue at high speed. This deforestation has brought the Amazon rainforest close to a tipping point which could destroy that forest and this destroy civilization.
This was when Bolsonaro was president of Brazil. I would guess that he also worked to prevent that agreement. Lula has decreased deforestation, but an international agreement would decrease it a lot more.
