Silva said, “We are able to strengthen the license process without compromising their quality, which is essential for climate crisis, loss of biodiversity and environmental protection in the desert,” Silva said.
Silva said that last month, the previous version of the Congress approved by the Congress had threatened the country’s commitment to eliminating the forest by 100 and described the Brazilian license framework as a “shock of death.”
