Slap educadísima of Brazil to the world
During a debate at a university in the United States, asked the former governor of the Federal District and current Minister of Education of Brazil, CHICO CRISTOVÃO Buarque, what he thought about the internationalization of Amazon. An American at the United Nations introduced his question, saying he hoped the response of a humanist and not a Brazilian.
This was the response from Mr Cristóvão Buarque:
really, as a Brazilian, only speak against the internationalization of the Amazon. For more than our governments due care this heritage, it is ours.
As a humanist, feeling the risk of degradation environmental gets the Amazon, I can imagine his internationalization, as well as everything else, that is of utmost importance to mankind.
If the Amazon, from humanist ethics, must be internationalized, also internationalize oil reserves in the world.
Oil is so important to the welfare of humanity as the Amazon to our future. Despite that, the owners of stocks they believe have the right to increase or decrease oil extraction and raise its price or not.
Similarly, the country's financial capital rich should be internationalized. If the Amazon is a reserve for all human beings, not be burned only by the will of an owner or a country. Burn the Amazon is as serious as the unemployment caused by arbitrary decisions of speculators global.
We can not have financial reserves serve to burn entire countries in the luxury of speculation.
Also, before Amazon, I would like to see internationalization of the great museums of the world. The Louvre should not belong only to France. Every museum in the world is the guardian of the most beautiful produced by human genius. You can not let that heritage
cultural, natural heritage as Amazon, is manipulated and destroyed for the pleasure of an owner or a country.
cultural, natural heritage as Amazon, is manipulated and destroyed for the pleasure of an owner or a country.
Not long ago, a Japanese millionaire decided buried along with him a large box teacher. On the contrary, that picture would have been internationalized.
During this meeting, the United Nations is realizing the Millennium Forum, but some presidents countries had difficulty participate because unpleasant arising on the border of U.S. So I think that New York, to host the United Nations, should be internationalized. At least Manhattan should belong to all mankind. In the same way as Paris, Venice, Rome, London, Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia ... each city, with its beauty specific history of the world should belong to the world.
If the U.S. wants to internationalize the Amazon, not run the risk of leaving it in the hands of Brazilian internationalize all stockpiles nuclear . Just think they already showed they were able to use those weapons, causing destruction thousands of times greater than the deplorable burnings done in the forests of Brazil.
In their speeches, the current presidential candidates United States have defended the idea of \u200b\u200b internationalizing world forest reserves in exchange for debt.
Let's start using this debt to ensure that every child the world has the chance to eat and go to the school . Internationalize the children treating them all no matter what country they were born, as heritage deserve care worldwide. Much more than deserves the Amazon. When leaders treat poor children of the world as a World Heritage Humanity will not allow that work when they should study, they die when they should live.
As a humanist, I accept to defend the internationalization the world, but while the world treats me as a Brazilian, fight for the Amazon is ours. Only ours!
