Yet, countries and companies continue making empty promises and pledges that don\u2019t meet the urgency of the climate crisis. 2050 this, 2030 that. To avoid the worst effects of the climate crisis, world leaders cannot waste any more time.<\/p>\n\n<p>We also cannot afford to lose any more forests to industrial agriculture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-international-stateless\/2021\/09\/ed9ffe32-gp01jvp-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Cattle Grazing in the Amazon. \u00a9 Greenpeace \/ Daniel Beltr\u00e1\" class=\"wp-image-49638\"\/><figcaption>Cattle graze in a recently burnt area in the Amazon. \u00a9 Greenpeace \/ Daniel Beltr\u00e1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>When we think about carbon emissions we often think of oil drilling, smokestacks billowing, and coal burning. What we also need to consider is the way that environmental degradation such as deforestation also contributes to those emissions, as well as reduces the planet\u2019s ability to capture and store carbon. In order to better understand how human activities create and perpetuate the climate crisis, we must think about the impact of adding carbon to the atmosphere alongside the impact of reducing the planet\u2019s ability to store it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>By taking such a holistic view, we get a clearer picture of who is driving the climate crisis as well as what climate action is needed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>A&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbonbrief.org\/analysis-which-countries-are-historically-responsible-for-climate-change\">new analysis by Carbon Brief<\/a>&nbsp;has listed the ten biggest polluting countries in the world and how much they have contributed to the current situation of the planet. What\u2019s new in the study is the inclusion of emissions from deforestation and land use, which has bumped offending countries like Brazil up in the list.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<lite-youtube style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/6zP0L69ielU\/hqdefault.jpg');\" videoid=\"6zP0L69ielU\" params=\"rel=0\"><\/lite-youtube>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n<p>Brazil is a country that has always been proud of its clean energy grid \u2014 mostly coming from hydroelectric power. However, not accounting for the carbon emissions from the destruction of the Amazon and other vital ecosystems \u2014 and from industrial agriculture \u2014 in the country is deceiving. Based on the new analysis, Brazil is the fourth most carbon-emitting country in the world. Yet, each year that passes, we see more and more forest destruction. Since the right-wing president Bolsonaro took office, deforestation in the Amazon has exploded, with an area of forest the size of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/noticias.uol.com.br\/meio-ambiente\/ultimas-noticias\/redacao\/2021\/10\/02\/desmatamento-amazonia-mil-dias-bolsonaro.htm\">3.300 soccer fields being wiped out every day<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>The emissions from clearing out forests are not the only threat deforestation poses to the global climate. Along with the oceans, forests are a major source of uptake of global emissions. That means we need the forests standing to capture the carbon we\u2019re releasing into the atmosphere.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>In fact, a recent study pointed out that, because of the high rate of deforestation,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2021\/07\/15\/1016469317\/parts-of-the-amazon-rainforest-are-now-releasing-more-carbon-than-they-absorb\">the Amazon might be releasing more carbon than it\u2019s storing<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-international-stateless\/2021\/10\/d8baf53b-gp1svzwt-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Area of forest destroyed by fires in the Amazon.\" class=\"wp-image-49933\"\/><figcaption>Area of forest destroyed by fires in the Amazon. \u00a9 Victor Moriyama \/ Amaz\u00f4nia em Chamas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>When our forests are destroyed to make way for industrial agriculture, we\u2019re losing a vital ecosystem that keeps our planet cool, and in addition to that, the land becomes a huge contributor to the climate crisis. 19% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from animal production, including livestock feed, and almost half of that comes from methane \u2013 the second largest contribution to the global increase in temperature.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>We urgently need action from companies and governments to not only put an end to our toxic relationship with the fossil fuel industry but also to end our addiction to animal products. Destroying the Amazon \u2014 and other forests around the world \u2014 is a threat to biodiversity, Indigenous Peoples\u2019 lives and to the global climate. <\/p>\n\n<p>To stand a chance against the climate crisis, we need the forest standing.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-cta\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/petition.act.greenpeace.org.nz\/forests-amazon-global?source=blogbutton\">SIGN THE PETITION<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout post-6440 \"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-action=\"Image\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"cover-card-overlay\"\n\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/petition\/save-the-amazon\/\" \n\t\t\t><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2019\/08\/d93c7584-gp0sttscx_medium_res-1024x683.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2019\/08\/d93c7584-gp0sttscx_medium_res-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2019\/08\/d93c7584-gp0sttscx_medium_res-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2019\/08\/d93c7584-gp0sttscx_medium_res-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2019\/08\/d93c7584-gp0sttscx_medium_res-510x340.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2019\/08\/d93c7584-gp0sttscx_medium_res.jpg 1200w\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 358px, (min-width: 780px) 313px, 88px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"\" title=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\/>\n            \t\t\t<div class=\"boxout-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"boxout-heading medium\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-action=\"Title\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/petition\/save-the-amazon\/\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tPETITION: Save the Amazon\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"boxout-excerpt\">Add your name to tell the Brazilian government to save the Amazon Rainforest and protect the lands of Indigenous and traditional communities.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t                                    <a\n                        class=\"btn btn-primary\"\n                        data-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n                        data-ga-action=\"Call to Action\"\n                        data-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n                        href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/petition\/save-the-amazon\/\"\n                        \n                    >\n                        Take Action\n                    <\/a>\n                \t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The clock is ticking.
