Save the Amazon, save the world

To US President Joe Biden and Brazilian President Lula da Silva:

As concerned global citizens, we call on you to save the Amazon rainforest and its precious ecosystems by protecting 80% of the Amazon by 2025, cleaning up supply chains, pledging new funds for conservation, and fully respecting the rights of Indigenous peoples and local communities.

Save the Amazon, save the world
Last year one thousand trees were chopped down every minute of every day in the Amazon. If the devastation doesn’t stop, our future is in jeopardy.

Because the world can’t survive the climate crisis without a healthy, safe, and protected Amazon.

Bolsonaro not only ignored the rampant illegal mining and deforestation at the center of this crisis -- he encouraged it! But it’s not just those who live in the Amazon who are paying the price. It’s all of us.

In just a few days, President Lula will join President Biden in Washington, DC for a meeting that could produce a pact to save the Amazon – if we can pressure them to agree on bold and decisive action to reverse the devastating policies of Trump and Bolsonaro. So sign now - and a delegation of indigenous leaders will take our voices straight to Washington DC!
