    Lula invites other countries to support TFFF initiative

    “We will be proud to remember that it was in the heart of the Amazon rainforest that we took this step together,” insisted Lula

    Upon launching the Tropical Forest Forever Facility (TFFF) during the Climate Summit in the Amazon city of Belém, in the State of Pará, on Thursday afternoon, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva invited other nations to support the initiative. “Forests are worth more standing than cut down. They should be included in our countries’ GDP. Ecosystem services need to be remunerated, as do the people who protect forests. International green funds are not up to the challenge,” insisted Lula.
