Brazil: Stop the devastation Bill

To President Lula and all Brazilian officials:

The future of humanity and the health of our planet are at stake: everyone, everywhere needs you to do everything in your power to preserve the Amazon and all Brazil’s ecosystems. We call on you to:
  • Veto the ‘devastation bill’ and any other anti-environmental legislation passed by Congress;
  • Protect Indigenous Peoples and safeguard their rights to their lands; and,
  • Hold private companies accountable for illegal encroachment on protected lands.

 Brazil: Stop the devastation Bill
Brazil’s Congress just passed the most destructive anti-environment bill in the country’s history.

The Amazon is already under attack, and this law blows the doors wide open, giving polluters and loggers a free pass to invade and destroy vast protected lands.

President Lula has just two weeks to veto it, and right now he’s torn: big business is pressuring him to cosign this destruction, and they’re winning - but he’s also preparing to host a global climate summit that will define his international legacy.

If we raise a massive global outcry, we can shift the balance - making it clear that signing this bill will cost him his international reputation and his plans to make Brazil a green superpower.

Add your name now - and when we reach half a million, Avaaz will launch a people-powered media storm reminding Lula what he stands to lose if he turns his back on the Amazon!
