'It doesn't seem like a climate catastrophe to me.' Brazil's foreign minister denied that his country was responsible for the devastation of the rainforest:
In a speech at the Heritage Foundation in Washington, DC, Minister of Foreign Affairs Ernesto Araujo denied that his country was responsible for the devastation of the rainforest, and accused other countries and activists of trying to"invade Brazil" under the guise of climate change action."It doesn't seem like a climate catastrophe to me, at least," he said."But from the debate that is going on, it would seem that the world is ending.
The Amazon is also a huge hydrological engine that helps regulate the world's climate, meaning its destruction could destabilize the climate and cause more severe temperatures.Araujo denied Brazilian accountability, despite climate activists pointing to loosened environmental regulations and more reckless slash-and-burn farming practices under the presidency of Jair Bolsonaro."Brazil is not burning the forest ... Brazil is not the culprit," he said.
