Forest Fire Apocalypse
24 August 2019
ALERT UDATE 24. August 2019: ECOTERRA Intl. and fPcN have received credible information that the Brazilian Military is using Bolsonaro's order - to help curbing the forest fires in the Amazon forest - for unwarranted intrusions and to break into autonomous and sacrosanct territories of Indigenous Peoples - only to commit further atrocities.
ECOTERRA Intl. urges all G7 leaders to invoke strongest possible measures to stop the apocalyptic disaster in the Amazon and the ICC to hold Jair Messias Bolsonaro responsible for genocide and ecocide. This is Environmental Crime and the ICC has all the instruments in place to prosecute and bring justice in this case. Bolsonaro and his henchmen must be brought to trial at the ICC.
Communities in the Amazon (Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia, Paraguay) are encouraged to send further reports from the ground to americasnode@ecoterra.net - or see how to establish fully secure communication channels - see HERE
Please also continue reporting from the ground in the DRC, where President Félix Tshisekedi and Prime Minister Sylvestre Ilunga must likeweise be held responsible finally for the environmental crimes and the atrocities committed against Indigenous communities and their natural forest habitat. The ICC also must look now into the Environmental Crimes and Crimes against Aboriginal Peoples (like the Twa) in the DRC. Send the reports to africanode@ecoterra.net or fPcN@fpcn-global.org or see HERE for the establishment of secure channels.
The Amazon - world's most precious forest - set ablaze by human greed backed by the policy of a single right-wing politician: Jair Mesias Bolsonaro.and the Mafia groups that follow him.
Fires consume large tracts of the world’s forest every year. But the present inferno in the Amazon is man-made and requires global action response. STOP BUYING BRAZILIAN SOY, MAIZE/CORN AND BEEF NOW!
UN secretary general, António Guterres, urged Brazil to take action. “In the midst of the global climate crisis, we cannot afford more damage to a major source of oxygen and biodiversity. The Amazon must be protected,” he tweeted. Celebrities including Leonardo DiCaprio, Madonna and Cristiano Ronaldo have also raised the alarm.
