Why are Colombia and Brazil making such great progress reducing deforestation in the Amazon? One clear answer—political will and leadership! Congratulations and let’s replicate!

[Matilda Davies @matildakdavies]

Experts agree

@JamesCDeutsch, CEO at @RainforestTrust, said: "The number one determinant of whether countries are doing better or worse on deforestation is political will."

That's the key to Petro's success, he says

Why must Indigenous Peoples' rights be at the centre of the fight to protect forests?

[James Deutsch @JamesCDeutsch]

@Brian_ODonnell I think exactly the opposite—climate change has massively increased global concern about the environment and the impact of its degradation on human well-being. Without Paris we would not have had Montreal.
