Invitation For Death Aniversary

STOP THE CURRENT SITUATION IS IN OUR HANDS ... ...






The Brazilian Congress is about to vote on a bill that would reduce the Amazon to 50% of its current size. The area to be deforested is four times the size of Portugal and will be used for agriculture and cattle rangeland. Wood will be sold on the international market in the form of wood chips for multinational corporations. The truth is that the soil of the Amazon forest is useless unless it is used to maintain the forest itself because it is a region of highly acidic soils and prone to constant flooding. Now more than 160 thousand square miles were deforested with the same purpose are abandoned and in the process of becoming deserts.
