WORLD leaders are waking up to the serious nature of climate change and biodiversity loss. The richest nations in the world, the G 7 (UK, US, Japan, France, Italy, Germany, and Canada) have agreed to stop funding all overseas development of fossil fuels by the END OF THIS YEAR! Bravo Bravo!
In a world first, Brazil’s Supreme Court has declared the Paris Climate Agreement a Human Rights Treaty superseding all national laws. Bolisinaro and Brazil are doing very poorly regarding combatting climate change and halting the destruction of the Amazon Forest and other natural ecosystems. Now, any law that is not in accord with the Paris Agreement is non-valid. All laws must uphold the people’s right to work back towards a healthy climate. This will start the ball rolling toward a global commitment to climate and biodiversity protection as a human right. Bravo to Brazil’s Supreme Court.
In other news, Finland just became the first country to enact a legally binding carbon negativity act. Bravo Finland!
