And the Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff has vetoed parts of a controversial bill, which regulates how much land farmers must preserve as forest. Among the 12 articles, which President Rousseff rejected, is an amnesty for illegal loggers. The powerful Brazilian farmer's lobby had argued that and easing of environmental restrictions would promote sustainable food production. But environmentalists have asked the president to veto the entire bill, saying it would lead to further destruction of the Amazon rainforest.
