In a petition to the international criminal court experts said the ‘mass deforestation’ poses a clear danger

In a submission to The Hague-based tribunal on Tuesday, legal and scientific experts said the “mass deforestation” unfolding under the rightwing nationalist posed a clear and present danger to Brazil, and to the world.
