El presidente de Brasil acusó al actor de Hollywood de financiar grupos que supuestamente provocaron las conflagraciones en ese importante lugar del planeta.

El artista estadounidense respondió este sábado a tal acusación y negó rotundamente haber financiado alguna entidad, aunque aseguró que está “orgulloso de respaldar a los grupos que protegen” ese ecosistema.

At this time of crisis for the Amazon, I support the people of Brazil working to save their natural and cultural heritage. They are an amazing, moving and humbling example of the commitment and passion needed to save the environment. The future of these irreplaceable ecosystems is at stake and I am proud to stand with the groups protecting them. While worthy of support, we did not fund the organizations targeted. I remain committed to supporting the Brazilian indigenous communities, local governments, scientists, educators and general public who are working tirelessly to secure the Amazon for the future of all Brazilians.
