The minister of the Environment, Carlos Minc, presented today (March 12), in Paris, the guidelines of the Brazilian environmental policy. In a session of the Informal Reflection Group on Brazil, of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), held this morning, Minc and the secretary of Climate Change of the Ministry, Suzana Kahn, specified the focus and priorities of the initiatives taken by the Brazilian government regarding the environment.
"It was a very good opportunity, and it will have some implications", said the minister. He said the audience - composed mostly of leaders of the OECD - has raised questions regarding the ethanol, the Amazon Fund, the national climate policy and the Brazilian participation in the BASIC group, formed by South Africa, India and China, besides Brazil.
According to Minc, the OECD must prepare "a thorough study" on environmental technologies and state structures for the Brazilian Ministry of the Environment (MMA). "The meeting paved the way for this study that the Organization might do, and that will help us greatly in improving our policies", said the minister.
