新的巴西法律威胁到亚马逊大豆暂停种植,可能增加森林砍伐。
New Brazilian laws threaten the Amazon soy moratorium, potentially increasing deforestation.
绿色和平组织和世界自然基金会(WWF)等环保组织正在批评马托格罗索州(Mato Grosso)和朗多尼亚(Rondonia)等州的巴西新法律,这些法律威胁到亚马逊大豆暂停令,该协议于2006年达成,禁止在最近被砍伐的森林地区进行大豆贸易。
Environmental groups like Greenpeace and WWF are criticizing new Brazilian laws in states like Mato Grosso and Rondonia that threaten the Amazon soy moratorium, a 2006 agreement banning trade of soybeans from recently deforested areas.
这项暂停令也得到美国主要商品公司的支持,有助于减少毁林。
The moratorium, also backed by major U.S. commodity firms, helped reduce deforestation.
然而,新的法律对遵守协议的公司实行减税优惠,有可能促进更多的毁林。
However, new laws cut tax incentives for companies following the agreement, potentially promoting more deforestation.
