  • The vision of the Amazon Region Protected Areas Project (ARPA) is to create a mosaic of protected areas around productive landscapes to maintain the ecological integrity of the region over the long term. The project aims to add  28 million hectares in new protected areas (PAs) in the Brazilian Amazon over the next 10 years, while helping to consolidate the existing protected areas system. This will result in a total of 50 million hectares of Amazon forested ecosystems under protection and sustainable use, an area the size of Spain.

  • It is hoped that the fund will raise up to 21 billion dollars over the next 13 years from nations around the world. Norway has already chipped in, pledging 100 million dollars to kick things off. Brazil has made it clear though that donations are only being accepted with a condition of no strings being attached. In other words, countries that donate money will have no say over how the money is used.

stop the assault on amazon

shared by brandon hall on 21 Oct 09 - Cached
  • The Brazilian Congress, influenced by the agribusiness sector, seeks to change the Forest Code in Brazil to open more of the Amazon rainforest to be cleared. Not only will this destroy forested areas in the Amazon no longer protected by the Forest Code, but the clearing and burning of these lands will release millions of tons of greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere—making the impacts of climate change much worse.
