Talking as a Brazilian, the best thing you can do is to pressure politicians and companies in your country to stop buying beef and soybean from Brazil, specially from deforested areas. It's the only thing that worked and the Bolsonaro administration knows this. Bolsonaro encouraged ranchers to set fire to the Amazon as soon as he took office. But when the news about the fires spread to the world earlier this year, the Minister of Agriculture (who is 100% pro-ranchers) practically begged the President to do something, because she knew this would hurt ranchers in their pockets. And only then the government started to put out the fires.

It is not one nation or country now. The Amazon forest is responsibility of all the nations. Brazil should be compensated by the rest of the world for protecting forest. Asking Brazil not to cut forests, expend on protection and not to be paid for loss of revenue is unjustifiable. Unselfishness is more paying, but humans do not have patience to practice it. And at last change is brought only when catastrophe strikes humans. Darwin once said, human species is still not evolved fully. How true!
@KumarNikhils5 жыл бұрын
Vox has simply put environment protection responsibility on brazil. They never talk about how brazil will develop without exploiting its resource. No developed nation will compensate brazil for protecting forest instead of using land for more profitable venture. Vox will suggest them to use low income of rubber instead. If there is mechanism by which economic value of amazon forest and resources can be ascertained fairly and all nations compensate brazil for not using them for that. Then these documentaries can justify themselves. Otherwise they will always be viewed as enemies of brazils economic properity by the govt.
@matheusazevedoC5 жыл бұрын
I see your point, and as a brazilian i can say to you, thats the opposite our government is doing. First, amazon is a really profitable area for brazil, if used consciously it will produce a lot for brazil industry. But if not, we will lost amazon and that will create a lot of damages to our country. One of it is the desertification of the northeast that survivess of the amazon umidity. So, ok, we could be compensated, but if we don't we still must do something ourselfs... Second, brazil was financed from various countries on europe to take care of the amazon... but a few months ago, our president just broke alliances with this countries and stop receiving money, as well helped a lot of "ruralistas" to take the amazon for themselfs... we accept help, but we must do something eitherway!!!!

Well, it won't matter, in a few decades the amazon will be gone. No matter how hard we cry over the internet. Money trumps all.

This is very sad. I am glad that countries like Bhutan still exists today.

Folks hating the people cutting down the trees, then realize that the cattle made here is shipped to American McDonald Stores

Nice to see Vox do a series about the rainforest. Since internal pressure to preserve the rainforest isn't doing it, maybe external pressure will.

This video is so sad!! People losing their lives to save the planet and the environment is the saddest thing.

Thank you for sharing the stories of Chico Mendes and the Amazon with the internet. My parents knew him well in the 80s and I feel a personal connection to the fight for the Amazon. At the same time, I feel like the ruralistas (the cattle ranchers and farmers) are winning and will continue to deforest and destroy. It's like the fight for climate change, but in these very isolated places that are out of the limelight.

A gente precisa é parar de depender de agricultura e gado. Os países mais desenvolvidos são industrializados.

They already paid. Germany and Norway were the largest donors of the Amazon fund.
