BRAZILIAN GOVERNMENT MUST PROTECT AMAZON RAINFOREST
SENATOR THE HON PENNY WONG
Labor urges the Brazilian Government to act urgently to protect the Amazon rainforest from raging fires, which are increasingly occurring at an alarming rate.
The Amazon has often been described as the world’s lungs. Its protection matters to the whole international community.
We call on the Morrison Government to do everything they can to encourage Brazil to respond to this rapidly worsening global disaster.
Failure to defend against or prevent these fires stands to derail any international efforts against climate change.
