Intercept Bolsonaro’s plans to dismantle environmental protection
To mitigate President Bolsonaro and Minister Salles’ exploitation of the COVID-19 circumstances to deregulate legal protection of the Brazilian environment.
Minister Salles’ has called for development of the Amazon, saying it is “necessary to lift people out of poverty” and that there is a “need to make an effort while we are in this calm moment in terms of press coverage, because they are only talking about COVID”. In lieu of the 55% increase in Amazon deforestation since 2020, the prospective plans from the Brazilian government could be devastating; for the Amazon rainforest and environments. Sign this petition to prevent further deregulation.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or House of Commons is responsible for.
The protection and development of the Amazon is a matter for the governments of jurisdictions which cover the Amazon, and not the Government or House of Commons.
