Indigenous leaders from Brazilian territories @ApibOficial and #XR Europe protested today infront of @EU_Commission demanding:
"Anti-deforestation law must include all regions/biomes, not just the Amazon in the 'Law on the Importation of Forest-Risk Products' (FERC)!"
Thread 🧵
@ApibOficial @EU_Commission The #EuropeanUnion is one of the largest buyers of soy and other forestry risk products from Brazil. This causes harm and destruction to #IndigenousPeoples and their lands.
“We need the EU government to stop these environmental crimes!” #StopEcocide
@ApibOficial @EU_Commission Respect the International Rights of #IndigenousPeople!
Indigenous Land is a guarantee for the future of all humanity. There is no solution to the #ClimateCrisis and #Biodiversity loss without Indigenous Peoples - @ApibOficial

@EU_Commission @Europarl_EN @EUCouncil.
@ApibOficial @EU_Commission @Survival @Europarl_EN @EUCouncil “We are protecting not only the forest but our very survival!”
Read the message to the #EuropeanParliament by @ApibOficial on the urgency of adopting an European anti-deforestation law (FERC):
