1 | Brazil: Future of Forests at Stake | Brezila: Tandindonin-doza ny hoavin'ny ala |
2 | This post is part of our special coverage Forest Focus: Amazon and Global Development 2011. | Ity lahatsoratra ity dia ampahany amin'ny tatitra manokana ataonay momba ny Fijerena ifotony ny Ala: Amazon. |
3 | Across the past few weeks, the Brazilian National Congress has been abuzz with the pressure to vote on a new Forestry Code. | Tao anaty herinandro vitsivitsy, voatonontonona ny kongresim-pirenena breziliana miaraka amin'ny fanerena handany ny lalàna vaovao mifehy ny rano sy ny ala. |
4 | The project based on proposed changes of the existing Code is backed by a coalition of Deputies of the so-called “Ruralist Front”. | Ilay tetikasa natolotra izay nifantoka tamin'ny fanovana ny lalàna efa nisy teo aloha dia tohanan'ny fivondronan'ny solombavam-bahoaka atao hoe “Ruralist front” na ny mandatehezan'ny Tantsaha. |
5 | The proposed Code raised controversy in mid-2010, as well as in December of the same year, when the matter was rushed forth while environmentalists were away in Cancún for the COP 16. The proposal under discussion establishes a new management scheme for forests and protected environmental areas in all 6 biomes of Brazil: Caatinga, Cerrado, Pampas, Atlantic Forest, Pantanal and the Amazon. | Nahatonga fifanoheran-kevitra ilay tolo-dalàna ny tapaky ny taona 2010, izay nitovy ny tamin'ny volana desambra tamin'io taona io ihany, nitranga fanihefany indray ny olana fony tsy naha tao Cancun ireo mpandala ny tontolo iainana noho ny COP 16. Ilay tetikasa niadian-kevitra dia ny mba hametrahana rafi-pitantanana vaovao momba ireo ala sy faritra 6 arovana ao Brezila: Caatinga, Cerrado, Pampas, Atlantic Forest, Pantanal sy Amazon. |
6 | The rationale driving the project is that agribusiness is hindered by the existing Code and Brazil is missing out on opportunities for economic development. | Ny lojika nitondrana ilay tetikasa dia ny momba ny fambolena mitodika amin'ny tsenam-barotra na “agribusiness” izay tsy nahazo vahana tamin'ny lalàna teo aloha ary tsy nahazo tombotsoa ho fampandrosoana ny toe-karena i brezila. |

10 | Forestry Code | Lalàna mifehy ny rano sy ny ala |
11 | The proposed Forestry Code fashions a ‘consolidated rural area' approach with many controversial features: making all cultivated areas legal (granting amnesty to those responsible for deforestation that created them); reducing the amount of riparian or stream-side zones to be protected (called ‘várzeas' and ‘igapós' in Portuguese); allowing occupation and use of areas above 1,800 m (which are currently protected) for agriculture; changing the parameters for Permanent Preservation Area (APP) to be replaced by new statutes created in each Brazilian State; eliminating the native reserve requirement in small properties; permits replanting of degraded areas with exotic plants (instead of only native species); allowing compensation for a devastated land with a protected area elsewhere (i.e. a devastated area in the Atlantic Forest could be compensated by a protected area in the Cerrado); and making it no longer compulsory to restore damaged native reserve on small properties. | Ilay tolo-dalàna mifehy ny rano sy ny ala dia manoritsoritra ‘fampivondronana ny faritra any ambanivohitra' ary ahitàna vontoaty maro mahabe resaka: fanaovana ireo toeram-pambolena rehetra ho manara-penitra (fanomezana famotsoran-keloka ireo tompon'andraikitra tamin'ny fandripahana ala nahatonga azy ireny); fampihenana ny faritra manodidina na amoron-drano ho arovana ( antsoina hoe ‘varzeas' sy ‘igapos' amin'ny fiteny portiogezy); fahafahana mifehy sy mampiasa ny velaran-tany mihoatra ny 1800 metatra (izay arovana amin'izao fotoana izao) ho amin'ny fambolena; fanovàna ny fitsipiky ny faritra voaaro maharitra (APP) mba hosoloina sata vaovao noforonina ao amin'ny fanjakana Breziliana isan-tokony; fanesorana ny tsy maintsy hanasiana faritra voajanahary arovana any amin'ireo faritra efa bitika; fahafahana mamboly karazan-kazo eo amin'ireo tany efa simba ( mba tsy ireo karazana izay efa zanatany teo ihany ); ary fahafahana mameno ireo tany lany tsiro aminà faritra arovana any an-toeran-kafa ( izany hoe ny faritra iray ripaka ao amin'ny alan'i Atlantika dia azo soloina aminà faritra voaaro any Cerrado) ary tsy ho an-tery ny asa fanarenana ireo toerana voajanahary simba any amin'ireo faritra bitika. Ny tsaho mandeha araka izany dia ny hoe ny foto-kevitry ny solombavam-bahoaka federaly tao amin'ny Antoko Kaomionista Aldo Rebelo nankao amin'ny kongresy tamin'ny 10 may dia vao avy nofaranana mialoha ny antso ho amin'ny latsa-bato . |
12 | Rumor has it that the version presented by the federal deputy from the Communist Party Aldo Rebelo to Congress on May 10, 2011, had its draft finalized just moments before the call to vote. | Nahatonga tabataba izany tsaho izany ary nampiato ny fivoriana noho ny tsy faneken'ireo Solombavam-bahoaka maro hamaly ny antso ho amin'ny fetran'isa farany ambany ilaina noho ilay foto-kevitra narafitra tsy azo nodinihana akory nialohan'ny latsa-bato. |
13 | The rumor made the voting session be adjourned as the version wasn't available for appreciation. | Vokatr'izany, nasaina hifidy làlana mbola tsy hitan'izy ireo akory izany ireo solom-bavam-bahoaka ireo. |
14 | Former Minister of Environment and presidential candidate Marina Silva (@silva_marina) tweeted on May 10 [pt]: | Ny minisitry ny tontolo iainana teo aloha sady mpilatsaka ho filoham-pirenena, Marina Silva (@silva_marina) dia nandefa bitsika ny 10 May [pt]: |
15 | It is unknown which proposals made by [civil] society and by the government are in Aldo's report. | Tsy fantatra izay tolo-kevitra ao amin'ny tatitr'i Aldo na ny nataon'ny fiarahamonim-pirenena na ny an'ny governemanta. |
16 | It will be disrespectful if the Forestry Code is voted today. | Tena feno tsy fanajana tanteraka raha lany amin'ity androany ity ilay lalàna mifehy ny rano sy ny ala. |
17 | On May 12, as deputies mentioned Marina Silva's message to demand more time to study the report, Aldo Rebelo accused Mrs. Silva's husband of illegal logging. | Ny 12 May, araka ny fampahatsiahivan'ireo Solombavam-bahoaka ny hafatr'i Marina Silva mba hangatahana fotoana misismisy kokoa handinihana ilay tatitra, nanameloka ny vadin-dRamatoa Marina Silva amin'ny fifanaovana taratasy tsy ara-dalàna i Aldo Rebelo. |
18 | He also stated that he had “spared” Mrs. Silva's husband, as had decided not to press charges. | Nambarany ihany koa fa fony mbola solombavam-bahoaka ny vadin'i Marina, tsy nahomby izy tamin'ny fanenjehana hanoherana ny famoahana hazo antsokosoko. |
19 | Based on this statement, which was aired on television, YouTube user CiFuDetube (acronym for Citizenship, Future and Democracy) advised netizens to call for Aldo Rebelo's impeachment, as he had publicly confessed misconduct. | Araka izany fanambarana izany izay nalefa tamin'ny fahitalavitra, i CiFuDetube (fanafohezan-teny ho an'ny maha-olom-pirenena, ny hoavy ary demokrasia), mpampiasa Youtube dia niantso fanonganana an'i Aldo Rebelo, noho izy naneho fitondran-tena tsy mendrika dia ny fanaovana zinona ankarihary. |

21 | Agribusiness, the future of Brazilian economy? | Indostria ara-tsakafo, hoavin'ny toekarena Breziliana? |
22 | According to journalist João Peres [pt], writing for Rede Brasil Atual, the “ruralist front” is made up of 170 deputies and 18 senators who openly support agribusiness and in some cases are farmers themselves. | Araka ilay mpanao gazety João Peres [pt], mpanoratra ao amin'ny Rede Brasil Atual, ny “manatehezan'ny tantsaha” dia ahitana solom-bavambahoaka 170 ary loholona18 izay manohana tsy ampisalasalana ny indostria ara-tsakafo ary ny sasany aza dia mpamboly mihitsy. |
23 | Deputy Kátia Abreu is a well-known member of the ruralist front, being a large producer in the meat industry. | Kátia Abreu solombavam-bahoaka fata-daza ao amin'ny mandatehezan'ny tantsaha, fa mpamokatra lehibe amin'ny indostrian-kena. |
24 | Since 2008, she has been the president of the Brazilian Confederation of Agriculture and Livestock (CNA) and is eager to see the new Code approved. | Nanomboka ny taona 2008, Prezidan'ny konfederasiona Brezilian'ny fambolena sy fiompiana omby (CNA) izy ary dia naniry ny hahalanian'izany lalàna vaovao izany. |
25 | Abreu (@KatiaAbreu) tweeted [pt] that the “modernization of the Forestry Code is being set in a democratic and responsible manner”. | Mrs Abreu (@KatiaAbreu) dia nibitsika [pt] fa “Apetraka amin'ny fomba ara-demokratika sy ara-drariny ny fanatsarana ny ny lalàna momba ny Rano sy ny ala”. |
26 | She also tweeted in defense of her efforts [pt]: | Mbola nibitsika ihany koa izy ho fiarovana ny ezaka nataony [pt]: |
27 | We are not loggers. | Tsy mpanapaka ala izahay. |
28 | We do not exploit wood in environmental reserve. | Tsy mitrandraka hazo amin'ny valan-java-boary. |
29 | We are food producers. | Fa mpamokatra sakafo. |
30 | We support Brazil. | Manohana an'i Brezila izahay. |

32 | During the COP 16, Deputy Abreu (member of the Social Democrat Party) was awarded the Golden Chainsaw [pt] by Greenpace Brazil, in recognition of “her efforts towards deforestation”. | Nandritra ny COP16, ny solombavam-bahoaka Abreu (mpikambana ao amin'ny Antoko sosialy demokraty), dia notolorana mari-pakasitrahana volamena Golden Chainsaw [pt] avy amin'ny Greenpace Brezila, ho fankasitrahana ny “ezaka vitany manoloana ny fandripahan'ala. |
33 | Rise in deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest - The Brazilian Amazon rainforest had 5.850 km2 of its legal area deforested from August 2009 to April 2010, according to INPE- Instituto de Pesquisas Espaciais. | Ny fihitaran'ny fanimbana ny Ala ao amin'ny Ala mandon'i Amazona - Ny Ala mandon'i Amazona any Brezila dia manana velaran-tany 5850km2 raha ny sori-taniny ara-dalana izay voakapa nanomboka ny volana Aogositra 2009 ka hatramin'ny Aprily 2010,araka ny tatitra avy amin'ny INPE- Instituto de Pesquisas Espaciais. |

35 | Deputy Aldo Rebelo, member of the Communist Party of Brazil (PCdoB), is the rapporteur (sponsor) responsible for the new Forestry Code proposed in Congress. | Ny solombavam-bahoaka Aldo Rebelo,mpikambana ao amin'ny Antoko kaominista Braziliana (PCdoB), no tompon'andraikitra mpanohana ny lalàna mifehy ny Rano sy ala vaovao natolotra tao amin'ny kongresy. |
36 | Mr. Rebelo has taken an uncompromising stand for the project. | Mr. Rebelo has taken an uncompromising stand for the project. |
37 | Despite his alliance with the Dilma Rousseff administration, he has shown deeper affinity with the proposal backed by the ruralist front rather then the less aggressive one backed by the Presidential Administration. | Andriamatoa Rebelo dia tsy milefitra raha ny momba io tetik'asa io. Na dia teo aza ny fifandraisany tamin'ny fiadidian'i Dilma Rousseff, dia nampiseho fankatoavana lalina tamin'ny tolon-kevitra nasehon'ny mandatehezan'ny tantsaha izy, raha miohatra ny tolon-kevitra mihaika nasehon'ny fiadidian'ny repoblika. |
38 | Rafael Chiaravalloti writes on his blog Diário do Verde (Green Daily) [pt] about the harmful effects of the new Forestry Code project and calls Aldo Rebelo a puppet doll: | Manoratra ao amin'ny blaoginy Diário do Verde (Diary Maitso) [pt] Rafael Chiaravalloti momba ny voka-dratsin'ilay lalàna vaovao mifehy ny Rano sy ny ala, ary, niantso an'i Aldo Rebelo hoe saribakoly vori-damba: |
39 | Aldo Rebelo, former activist in the struggle for democracy against the military rule - during which the code was created - is merely a puppet doll in this process. | Aldo Rebelo, mafana fo teo aloha tao amin'ny tolona ho amin'ny demokrasia anoherana ny lalàna miaramila - tamin'ny fotoana namolavolana ilay lalàna - dia toy ny sari-bakoly vori-damba amin'izao raharaha izao. |
40 | Environmentalists and scientists reject proposal | Nandà ilay tolo-kevitra ny mpandala ny tontolo iainana sy ny siantifika |
41 | Concerned with the powerful forces behind the new Forestry Code, environmental NGOs like Greenpeace Brazil and WWF-Brazil and institutes such as ISA - Instituto Socioambiental (Socio-Environmental Institute) - and IPAM - Instituto de Pesquisa Ambiental da Amazônia (Environmental Research Institute of the Amazon) - joined their forces in 2010 to fight against the new Code. | Noho izy voakasika amin'ny tanjak'ireo hery tao ambadik'ilay lalàna mifehy ny Rano sy ny ala, ireo fikambanana tsy miankina miaro ny tontolo iainana toy ny Greenpeace Brezila sy WWF-Brezila ary ny toeram-pikarohana toy ny ISA - Instituto Socioambiental (Foibe Ara-sosialy sy ara-tontolo iainana) - sy IPAM - Instituto de Pesquisa Ambiental da Amazônia (Foibem-pikarohana ara-tontolo iainana any Amazona) - dia nanambatra ny heriny tamin'ny taona 2010 hanohitra ilay lalàna vaovao mifehy ny ala. |
42 | The website SOS Florestas (SOS Forests) [pt] aims at offering content to correct the currently widespread misinformation. | Ny vohikala SOS Florestas (SOS Ala) [pt] dia nisafidy ny hanome vontoatiny mba hanitsiana ny vaovao diso miely. |
43 | The argument is that there have been lies [pt] about the way the new Forest Code was elaborated and it is necessary to publicize the potential negative effect on ecosystems in Brazil. | Ny tohan-kevitra ao dia ny hoe nisy ny lainga[pt] nandaingana momba ny fomba nandrafetana ilay lalàna vaovao, ary tena ilaina noho izany ny mampiely ny mety ho voka-dratsiny eo amin'ny tontolo ara-boajanahary any Brezila. |
44 | The initiative created an online petition [pt] with Avaaz to maintain the current Forestry Code. | Nanao fanangonan-tsonia tamin'ny aterineto [pt] niaraka tamin'ny Avaaz izany vohikala izany hitazonana ny lalàna mifehy ny Rano sy ny Ala amin'izao fotoana. |
45 | On Twitter, the hashtag #SOSFlorestas is used and a video [pt] has been produced to inform about the harmful possibilities of the proposed new code, especially in regards to ending the compulsory reserve of original forest on small properties, and the lower restriction of areas of permanent protection on hills and riversides, which has huge impacts on cities. | Ao amin'ny Twitter, ampiasaina ny tenifototra #SOSFlorestas ary nisy a video [pt] novokarina ho fampahafatarana ny mety ho voka-dratsin'io lalàna vaovao natolotra io, indrindra indrindra ny mba hampitsaharana ny fanerena ny faritra arovana amin'ny Reny ala ho toerana voatokana,ary ny famerana ambany indrindra ny faritra arovana maharitra ho havoana sy sisin-drenirano, izay misy fiantraikany goavana ho an'ireo tanàn-dehibe. |
46 | The Brazilian Society for the Progress of Science (SBPC) and the Brazilian Academy of Science (ABC) have come forward to argue for a two-year moratorium [pt] on the Forestry Code dialog in Congress. Both institutions agree the Code must be changed, but argue the current proposals lack the scientific data basis needed for new determinations of native reserve, for the adjustment of protected areas on riversides and other changes. | Ny Fiarahamonina Breziliana ho Fampiroboroboana ny Siansa (SBPC) sy ny Akademia Breziliana momba ny Siansa (ABC) dia niroso tamin'ny fanohanan-kevitra ho famerana ho roa taona[pt] Niara-nanaiky ny roa tonta fa tokony hovaina io lalàna io, nefa samy niaiky ny tsy fahampian'ny fahalalana ara-tsiantifika izay ilaina amin'ny fikasana vaovaon'ny toerana voaaro teo aloha io tolo-kevitra io, mba ho fanatsarana ny fiarovana ny sisin-drenirano sy ny fiovana hafa. |
47 | “Aldo Effect”: Deforestation is going up | “Aldo Effect”: Tsy mitsaha-mitombo ny fandripahana ala |
48 | Just a few days ago, Instituto Centro de Vida (ICV) and Imazon, institutions that conduct research and advocate for the sustainable management of Brazilian biomes, reported that deforestation [pt] went up in the state of Mato Grosso, against the previous trend of lower deforestation rates: | Just a few days ago, nitatitra[pt] ny Instituto Centro de Vida (ICV) sy Imazon, foibe roa izay manao fikarohana sy miaro ny fitantanana maharitra ny valan-java-boary any Brezila, fa niakatra ny fandripahana Ala [pt] tany amin'ny faritr-i Mato Grosso,raha oharina amin'ny fiakaran'ny tahan'ny fandripahana ala teo aloha: |
49 | In April 2011, deforestation reached 243 km2 in Mato Grosso, which corresponds to an impressive increase of 537% compared to April 2010, when deforestation reached an area of 38 km2. | Ny volana Aprily 2011, nahatratra 243 km2 ny fandripahana ala tany Mato Grosso, izay mifanaraka amin'ny fitomboana goavana hatramin'ny 537% raha oharina ny tamin'ny Aprily 2010, rehefa nahatratra hatramin'ny 38 km2 ny fandripahana ala.. |
50 | You can see maps and graphics here [pt] comparing deforestation rates in Mato Grosso over the past four years. | Azonao jerena ato ny saritany sy grafika [pt] mampitaha ny tahan'ny fandripahana ala ao Mato Grosso nandritra ny efa-taona lasa. |
51 | As journalist Leonardo Sakamato argues, this is a race to deforest areas, as the new Forestry Code will provide farmers with amnesty. | Araka ny filazan'i Leonardo Sakamato mpanao gazety, hazakazaka mankany amin'ny fandripahan'ala izany, noho ilay lalàna vaovao manome famotsoran-keloka ho an'ireo tantsaha. |
52 | Environmentalists have named it the “Aldo Effect”. | Izany dia nantsoin'ireo mpandala ny tontolo iainana hoe “Aldo Effect”. |
