Brazil And The Amazon | Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj | Netflix

On the latest Patriot Act, Hasan breaks down of the growing threats to Brazil's Amazon rainforest. After a long and welcome decline, Brazil's deforestation rates have begun to rise again, just as climate science shows how desperately we need the forest to survive.
Now, backed by the country's powerful beef industry, the country's inflammatory new president Jair Bolsonaro has vowed to exploit Brazil's natural resources. Standing in his way: the determined indigenous peoples whose domain over the land are the last, best shot for the rainforest -- and possibly the world's climate.

In most of his shows he speaks about “what we can do” and this is one had a very obvious call to action (besides donating money) which is to eat less meat(beef) but except for a few cow jokes here and there, the whole topic was overshadowed by corruption. The industry exists and continues to exploit because there is an ever-growing demand for beef. You can LITERALLY start with-eat less animals. It’s that simple. Or at least boycott this particular company’s meet, but people are so scared of telling people that their food habits may be destroying the world.

Stephen Jenkins You idiot, ppl are gonna have a harder time feeding them self bc of climate change. Climate change has affected the poorer countries and ppl first bc they can’t afford to relocate.

Hey Hasan, please talk more about indigenous rights around the world to spread awareness as people know little about how protecting indigenous land is equal to protecting forests.

Great show! I'm so glad this is back!! Just a thing though: Lula's trial was super shady. Fastest trial in brazilian history, mainly so he couldn't run for president (cause he was projected to win). What they have on him is circumstancial at best, and even if proved to be true, isn't enough to prove corruption, only that he had an undeclared apartment. He went true some pretty bad stuff during the trial period, being denied basic rights. His situation is closer to political arrest (illegal in Brazil) than fair trial.

I didn't say anything about JBS nor did I deny Lula's involvement with them, to which we have no proof of guilt or innocence. I just pointed out how the conditions of his trail were suspiscious and proof is only circumstancial. Also, I'm a political scientist, I do my fair share of 'studying' about the topic. Regardless of partisan issues, due process should be respected for any individual, and everyone knows it wasn't the case for him, both before and after his arrest.

[@lakshmik0]

Ecuador tried it. Tried to raise money to keep oil in the ground - underneath one of the richest forests in the world. Countries simply didn’t put enough money up. (Last I checked). From what I know of the workings of UNFCCC related commitments on climate change as well as parallel funding opportunities like REDD+, countries will do everything to not give additional money (of which a lot is needed) and OECD ones will call meeting after meeting on how to creatively account for financial commitments made AND continue polluting. The only way to do this is BOTH raise money that countries need to protect forests, adapt to climate change, etc. but also drastically cut down our consumption. Not depend on consumerism fueled economic growth. We did it once before - created a proper international agreement to protect the ozone hole from getting bigger (and except for a recent spike in HFCs, that remains one of the best climate related treaties ever drawn and enforced). Annex 1 countries like the US coughed up the money for Annex 2 countries to not go down the same path Annex 1 countries had - common but differentiated responsibility. Annex 2 countries were also given access to technology. They also put in exceptional monitoring mechanisms in place - to track CFCs and HFCs. What helped Ozone treaty was also the fact that companies in Annex 1 countries came up with a technological alternative they wanted to sell - the treaty opened up markets for them in Annex 2. GHG emissions are a bit more complex, in many ways. For instance, we can’t actually measure how much CO2 is emitted by each country - we know what’s in the atmosphere, but country emissions are complex calculations. Organizations and fossil fuel rich nations are not positioned enough to capture the benefits of say a transition to a renewable energy based economy. The money needed for mitigation and adaptation is huge...well beyond what was raised for Ozone protocol. But then, the costs of not acting - as humans have since 1980s - is significantly large as well. Hassan is right in that we are fucked.

Brazil 1.1 by a brazilian: (and a lot of other brazilians will disagree here) The latter governments were poorly trying to enforce the laws that protected the ecosystem. The corruption scandals, impeachment and prision of two of the former leaders had a big influence by one of the most powerful groups in the brazilian political scheme, The agricultural and cattle companies lobbysts. The new president has been elected with major support of these companies and is enforcing the removal of laws and policies to protect the ecosystem, what will generate more profit for those companies. We are now pretty much selling the amazon and in the process killing native tribes that lives there.... oh, and it's highly possible to have some involvement under the sheets of american gvnmt in the process to remove our two former leaders previously mentioned.... but it's still uncertain yet.

Why does it seem that every right wing politician/presidents has “Make (nation) great again!”?

[@josephine1566]

@Dmon ! And great at manipulating and convoluting stuff so much, that you can't even form a coherent argument against them. Coz you dont know what the fuck they are talking about in the first place.

Aside from the corruption and governmental inefficiency in Brazil, it is important to know that many countries who have pledged to help protect the Amazon, actually have some of their companies involved in the deforestation. Many European companies have been caught cutting and transporting huge logs of high quality rare tree species. The problem is very complex. Even indigenous tribes have been found to have been bribed to allow the mentioned companies to explore their lands.

[@Alkis05]

Yeah, and if people stopped having oral sex HPV wouldn't spread.

Also the same sort of thing is happening in the borneo rainforest as it is being burned down for the palm oil plantation.

[@crazyspirit1991]

Let's give India the responsibility of Amazon, no beef , no deforestation

[@umairvirk9993]
