Michel Forst, UN-Berichterstatter zur Aarhus-Konvention, hat die europäischen Regierungen aufgefordert, Klima-Aktivist:innen zu unterstützen statt sie zu kriminalisieren. Die zunehmende Repression gefährde das Erreichen der Pariser Klimaziele und Demokratie und Menschenrechte in Europa. Forst erwartet, dass Protest und direkte Aktion zunehmen, weil die aktuelle Politik vieler europäischer Regierungen die wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse zu globaler Erhitzung, Biodiversitätsverlust und Umweltverschmutzung nicht respektiert. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/feb/28/european-nations-must-end-repression-of-peaceful-climate-protest-says-un-expert

In dem bisher umfassendsten Klimaprozess klagen 6 portugiesische Kinder und junge Menschen vor dem Europäischen Menschenrechts-Gerichtshof gegen 32 Nationen, um sie zu einer schnellen Senkung ihrer Emissionen zu zwingen. Sie haben inzwischen erreicht, dass ein Hearing vor der Grand Jury des Gerichtshofs stattfand. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/sep/14/young-people-to-take-32-european-countries-to-court-over-climate-policies

In Portugal hat zum zweiten Mal in wenigen Jahren ein Waldbrand den Naturpark von Sintra-Cascais in der Nähe von Lissabon getroffen.

Where in Europe are sizable lithium deposits. Serbia has a large resource. Portugal named here 'biggest in Europe' but is that EU or also non-EU Europe? Last Oct a large deposit was mentioned in southern Germany https://duitslandinstituut.nl/artikel/51669/mogelijk-grootste-europese-lithiumvoorraad-in-duitsland also 'the largest in Europe'. The EC has marked lithium and other materials as strategic resources in 2020 https://www.europa-nu.nl/id/vlbrdsozwzzy/nieuws/brussel_zet_in_op_schaarse_grondstoffen

die portugiesische Umweltbehörde hat grünes Licht für den Bau der größten lithium-europas gegeben. Es gibt aber immer noch Widerstand gegen dieses Projekt, dass in einer zum landschaftlichen Weltkulturerbe erklärten Region stattfinden soll und enorme Umweltschäden verursachen wird. https://taz.de/Portugal-genehmigt-riesigen-Tagebau/!5935913/

Το 1976 ο επικεφαλής της όλης αμερικανικής επιχείρησης, ναύαρχος Zumwalt, ειπε τα δικτατορικά καθεστώτα της Πορτογαλία, Ισπανίας & Ελλαδας ηταν που έσωσαν το Ισραηλ. Αντιθετα, η Τουρκία πηγε με Σοβιετικούς.

Ενδιαφερον αντιλογος στην θεωρία συνομωσίας των Απριαλιανών, αφού η Πορτογαλία που στηριξε ανοιχτά τις ΗΠΑ έπεσε αμέσω μετα!

Because the Ottoman Empire had a grasp over the Mediterranean Portugal had to occupy the Cape of Africa. For the Portuguese it was another way to trade with India and china without the burden of Ottomans Tariffs.

1. Why do you think that King Affonso let the Portuguese enslave his subjects at first?
2. I believe that King Alfonso thought it was a good idea to enslave his subjects at first because it could help boost his wealth and the country's wealth without paying the people who actually did the work. He did not want lower-class people in his country because he wanted all the things he wanted in order to live a luxurious life.
3. In the letter below, why does the king now request regulations?
4. The King was finally hearing from all of his people that many of the people in Portugal were being taken away for slavery. He set guidelines because he realized many of the people were being enslaved for no reason at all.

The Portuguese relied heavily on Africans in the slave market.

Were the slaves worked to death? Was the work grueling? What was it that caused the high mortality rate?
