Update
Regarding Amazon Region - Gert Roland Fischer (1989 Laureate)
During
the last week I visit as consulter in a Amazon region, in the
State of Mato Grosso, in a small City named SORRISO, with 65.000
inhabitants, 25 Yares old. These county (minicip) is the biggest
soya beans producer - 600.000 hectars, al of them, exported to
USA and European Community mainly to the Neederland .
This soya plantation ist sprayed by airplain with the dangerous
pesticides - more of them imported ilegaly from Paraguay, whos
legislation alow the clorine pesticides, There pesticides classified
by PAN - Pesticides Action Network as THE DIRTY DOZEN more of
them cancer and mutations cases in human beans and animals.
http://www.panna.org/
Information collected in this area, show that the soya growers
use more than 6 quilos pesticides per hectare (10.000m2) Brazil
is the second bigger pesticides consumer in the World. Multinationals
companies spray on the environment every Year more than 250.000
ton copromising the production costs over two billion USD.
A lot of these pesticides, retorn to the american and European
consumers as contaminated food.
I am consulter of tree NGOs that wrote Environmental Education
programs to promote better regulations and information to the
soya beans growers.
Al of the Amazon region soya growers, destroy the Rain Forest
to plant soya, with lower worker hands because the plantation
and growing will make with machinery.
I think that in the ONU-UNEP Environmental programs must find
Financial support to minimize impacts ond the aier, soil, water,
consumers and workers.
Please touch me if You have a good information about this. We
look for CDM - clean Development Mechanism on clime change and
Kyoto protocol.
Sincerely Yours
Gert Roland Fischer
