Pueblos indígenas de la selva amazónica

Los líderes indígenas de la Amazonía adoptaron una resolución para proteger el 80% de la selva tropical para 2025 en el Congreso Mundial de la Naturaleza de la UICN en septiembre de 2021. Hoy, en la COP-26, continúan haciendo un llamado a los gobiernos, empresas y compañías financieras de todo el mundo para que pongan fin al financiamiento. para industrias extractivas en la región amazónica.

«La industria de los combustibles fósiles ha pasado décadas negando y retrasando acciones reales sobre la crisis climática, razón por la cual este es un problema tan grande. Su influencia es una de las principales razones por las que 25 años de negociaciones climáticas de la ONU no han llevado a reducciones reales de las emisiones globales. »

‘Death to Jews,’ Polish nationalists shout at rally while burning book about Jews in Poland – Jewish Telegraphic Agency (Me: Never again!)

Polish nationalists shouted “death to Jews” as they burned a book representing a historic pact protecting the rights of Poland’s Jews.

The book burning Thursday at a rally in Kalisz, a city of about 100,000 inhabitants situated 120 miles southwest of Warsaw, was part of a series of nationalist events on Nov. 11, National Independence Day, which is the anniversary of when Poland regained its sovereignty in 1918.

Videos and eyewitness accounts on social media show that Wojciech Olszański, a far-right activist, lit a red-covered book that was meant to symbolize the Statute of Kalisz. The document issued in 1264 by Prince Bolesław the Pious regulated the legal status of Jews living in Poland and afforded some protection through penalizing attacks on them. The statute served as the legal foundation for relations between non-Jews and Jews in Poland for centuries later.
