Ignoring the more than 15,000 people demonstrating outside, Bolsonaro allies in the Brazilian Congress decided during a late-night session earlier this month to fast-track a bill that would allow mining inside Indigenous lands, unleashing death and devastation upon the environment and Indigenous communities.

In our recent report Complicity in Destruction IV, we underscored the inherent risks related to Bill 191/2020, an egregious policy that represents the vision and interests of President Bolsonaro’s political appointees and the financiers of his campaign.

In addition to allowing mining on Indigenous lands and denying Indigenous peoples their veto power, the bill also seeks to authorize the planting of genetically modified seeds and the building of hydroelectric plants, ranching activities, and oil and gas projects in these locations.

Despite significant publicity attempts to minimize their complicity in Amazon destruction, mining giants and their financial backers are far from taking concrete action to guarantee our planet's future.
