AMAZON CLIMATE INITIATIVEREVISITING YASUNÍ-ITT AND PPG7

Resumo

This article aims to explore and compare the actions of the Brazilian government in relation to the commitments made under the Paris Agreement, focusing on declarations and protocols agreed upon for reducing GHG emissions and the Nationally Determined Contribution. The Federal Government, through the Ministry of the Environment, directs efforts to reduce deforestation in the Amazon rainforest and projects to eliminate it by 2030. However, the rhetoric of delay becomes evident when this same government politically acts to allow environmental licensing for oil exploration in the Foz do Amazonas Basin (Block FZA-M-59), one of the most vulnerable regions of Brazil's coastal zone. Two experiences in the Amazon are revisited: the Yasuní-ITT Initiative and the PPG7, in order to propose an Amazon Climate Initiative, built with the leadership of society and based on the principles of environmental and climate justice.
