This publication discusses the political and ecological situation of Brazil with regard to climate change. The author argues that Brazil is primarily considered to play a positive role as a global furnisher of bio fuel in the future and that the Brazilian federal government is reluctant to recognize the ecological and social risks of an extension of the agricultural lands. The paper concludes that it is crucial to establish standards for certified energy plant cultivation in order to avoid negative ecological and social effects.
