Deforestation in Brazil's Amazon rainforest dropped 33.6% in the first six months of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s term, providing an encouraging sign for his administration's environmental efforts.
Payment implies a capitalist world order, which would be impossible if we lived in a world where natural resources are given non-extraction value. So rich countries paying poorer countries for environmental purposes is already a nonsense premise. In a different socialist world, maybe that could work in some way.
Regardless of how you want to frame it, deforestation should be opposed in all ways, including state-sponsored violence.
Why would payment imply capitalism? Pay in resources idk, who cares. Europe is rich because of the material wealth from South America, Africa and Asia.
For Brazil to forgo exploiting its material wealth, it has to be compensated.
Or it will forever exist in a subservient and underdeveloped state.
That’s just pure logic, I’m not sure what is wrong with what I said.
Because it won’t happen and can’t happen in our current world. It’s nonsense. It’s like pontificating what would happen if personal teleportation existed.
Ah so thinking about solutions, very doable solutions mind you, is nonsense. It’s like teleportation, which is physically impossible. While making payments to developing countries to keep their nature intact is perfectly possible in many many ways.
But yeah, let’s all completely stop deforesting. That’s much more plausible.
