In front of the venue, activists from Germany placed a tree trunk with the words “Stop Killing Forests”.In 2010, the CGF and its members promised to end deforestation by 2020 through “responsible sourcing” of commodities such as cattle and soya, key drivers of forest destruction in Brazil. So far, measures taken by the companies indicate that they will fail to keep this promise.A key concern is the serious increase in violence against Brazilian Indigenous Peoples and the destruction of their lands since President Bolsonaro took office in January.In original language:Protestaktion gegen Waldzerstoerung bei internationaler Konferenz des Consumer Goods Forum (CGF) in BerlinEine Brasilianische Indigenen-Delegation und Greenpeace Aktivistinnen und Aktivisten protestieren vor dem Veranstaltungsort der internationalen Konferenz des Consumer Goods Forums (CGF) in Berlin friedlich gegen Waldzerstoerung.Bereits 2010 hatte das CGF mit seinen Firmen – darunter Weltkonzerne wie Nestlé oder Unileve rversprochen, Waldzerstoerung bis 2020 aus ihren Lieferketten zu verbannen.Trotz dieser Selbstverpflichtung koennen viele dieser Unternehmen immer noch nicht ausschließen, dass für ihre Produkte weltweit riesige Waldflaechen vernichtet werden. Greenpeace fordert daher in Deutschland und auf EU-Ebene Gesetze, die Unternehmen zu nachhaltigen Lieferketten verpflichten und den Marktzugang fuer Produkte in der EU an strenge oekologische und soziale Kriterien knuepfen.In diesem Bild: Angela Kaxuyana / Angela Amanakwa Kaxuyana, Kretã Kaingang / Romancil Gentil Cretã, Célia Xakriabá / Celia Nunes Correa, Sonia Guajajara / Sonia Bone de Souza Silva SantosLocations:Berlin-Europe-GermanyDate:24 Oct, 2019Credit:© Kevin McElvaney / GreenpeaceMaximum size:7952px X 5304pxRestrictions:IMAGES OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLE IN BRAZIL MUST NOT BE USED FOR FUNDRAISING PURPOSES.Keywords:Actions and protests-Activists-Banners-Commercial businesses-Day-Forests (campaign title)-Greenpeace activists-Indigenous People-KWCI (GPI)-National costumes-Non-violent direct actions-Outdoors-Photo opportunities (action tactic)-Small group of peopleShoot:Protest against Forest Destruction at Consumer Goods Forum (CGF) Global Summit in BerlinIndigenous leaders from Brazil and Greenpeace Germany activists are peacefully demonstrating at the Consumer Goods Forum (CGF) Sustainability Committee Meeting in Berlin against forest destruction.In 2010, the CGF and its members promised to end deforestation by 2020 through “responsible sourcing” of commodities such as cattle and soya, key drivers of forest destruction in Brazil.
