Yeah, it’s heartbreaking, especially because it’s all to access the worst oil there is. So they’re destroying a carbon sink so as to access the worst type of carbon pollution. Makes no sense especially when considering we should be transitioning away from oil anyway. The forest is waaaaaay more valuable!

I am so excited for this! I was a kid when Ferngully came out and ever since watching that movie I have been furious at the lack of care for the Amazon and other forests globally. I am hoping and praying these will be the first steps towards actual protection for the Amazon!

Well I feel like I just read a news story from Star Trek. I am fine with this
