Fifteen days after being presented, the bill dealing with the conservation, protection and exploitation of the Pantanal was approved in the Legislative Assembly of Mato Grosso do Sul. One of the objectives is to combat the fires that affect the biome.
The text provides for the creation of a fund aimed at promoting sustainable development, prohibits the cultivation of soybeans, eucalyptus and sugar cane and prohibits the installation of hydroelectric and coal plants.
The Pantanal Law, as the proposal was called, will come into force 60 days from publication in the Official Gazette.
The text deals with the conservation, protection, restoration and ecologically sustainable exploitation of the AUR-Pantanal (Restricted Use Area of the Marsh Plain).
The list of priorities includes the recovery of degraded areas, the promotion of research, formal environmental education and the participation of indigenous communities and the Pantaneiro private sector in decisions related to territorial guarantees.
