"The Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro must be held criminally responsible for
a “ruthless” assault on the Amazon that has exacerbated the climate emergency
and imperilled humanity’s very survival, activists have argued in a petition to
the international criminal court.

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."

Via Glyn Moody, who wrote "damn right: he’s a danger to humanity; lock him up"
