Rodrigo Franco submitted a written statement to the 51st United Nations Human Rights Council Session regarding member states’ commitments to international agreements on climate change. He expressed concern over the electoral rhetoric in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland regarding the intention to drop the green levies on electricity charges, and the degradation of the Amazon rainforest due to Brazil’s irresponsibility. Rodrigo also urged action against climate change to mitigate the limits to rights to work and likelihood of armed conflict, which climate change, if unchecked, will lead to.
