Brazil Congress fast-tracks ‘death package’ bill to mine on Indigenous lands

  • Thousands of protesters, including celebrities, activists and 150 Indigenous people from eight ethnic groups, gathered for the biggest environment protest ever held in Brazil’s capital against a series of bills dubbed the “death package” by critics.
  • Protesters say the slate of five key bills will cause unbridled environmental damage and violate Indigenous rights by encouraging commercial activities in vulnerable regions and invasions of Indigenous territories.
  • While the protests were taking place, the lower house of Congress voted to fast-track one of those bills, which would allow mining on Indigenous lands — an activity that’s banned under Brazil’s Constitution.
  • While some lawmakers say they oppose the bills and will vote against them, the bills enjoy the support of President Jair Bolsonaro and the powerful agribusiness lobby.

As thousands of people protested in Brazil’s capital against a “death package” of bills deemed anti-environmental and anti-Indigenous, the lower house of Congress agreed to fast-track one of those bills, which would allow mining inside Indigenous lands.

The move by the Chamber of Deputies triggered a public outcry, with more than 15,000 people turning out in the biggest environmental protest ever held in Brasília.

Glacier Cave, Republika Srpska – Pećina Ledenjača Republika Srpska

Myrela

Ulaz u pećinu Ledenjača nalazi se u blizini sela Donje Budnje u blizini Miljevine (opština Foča). Pećina predstavlja stari ponor rječice Potok, koji ponire 40 metara istočno od ulaza u pećinu. Tokom geološke istorije riečno korito spustilo se i ostavilu Ledenjaču van aktivne hidrološke funkcije. Speleomorfološki, pećina Ledenjača sastoji se od glavnog kanala dugog oko 200 metara i nekoliko manjih, pukotinskih kanala. Ulaz u pećinu pregrađen je kamenim zidom visokim do polovine otvora, zbog vjerovanja lokalnog stanovništva da “nezdrav vjetar duva iz pećine i donosi slanu i inje, koji u lošim godinama uzrokuje sušenje voća i šume.” Crteži na ulazu otkriveni su za vrijeme sistematskih arheoloških i etnoloških istraživanja gornjeg Podrinja u drugoj polovini sedamdesetih godina prošlog vijeka. Crteži su koncentrisani na tri površine, od kojih se se dvije nalaze južno, a jedna sjeverno od ulaza. Nepoznati autori pažljivo su odabrali što ravnije površine, koje su, možda, prije urezivanja crteža…

Há relacionamentos que existe tudo, menos amor.

Brigas constantes, humilhações e desinteresse é um sinal de alerta.

Existem situações dentro de relacionamentos onde o amor mudou de casa, só você que não viu.
