Historically, much of the renewable energy infrastructure (dams, wind turbines) in Brazil has come at an unnecessarily high cost to human rights and indigenous people's rights.

My country's (Norway) state-owned electrical power company Statkraft operates many projects in Latin America, and has employed shady tactics like divide-and-conquer on local communities.

We need more reneweable power, but our pursuit of it must be equitable. I sincerely hope Brazil (and Statkraft/SN Power) improves in this regard
