Instituto Liberdade in Brazil is a proud supporter and friend of the mission of the Copenhagen Wall - Carbon Curtain Project

For 28 years, the Berlin Wall stood as the physical symbol of the Iron Curtain – the divide between the free West and the enslaved East. Though the Iron Curtain and Berlin Wall happily are both memories, the world is once again witnessing the construction of yet another tyrannical barrier to economic development and political freedom – the Carbon Curtain. Promoted under the guise of climate change and so-called “clean energy,” the Carbon Curtain will operate as a barrier to economic development and political liberty for the world’s poor
