Maybe you should have worded your complaint more carefully.

How to be a bad climate activist
- Don't own a private jet.
- Don't own a yacht.
- Don't own any mansions.
- Engage in utterly peaceful, non-violent protests.
- Get awarded a prison sentence of several years.
ah so you deliberately used a misleading phrase then when you said "cutting through tens of thousands" -so a bit like the BBC editing the Trump speech.
what you actually meant was cutting down 60 acres
just another example of you seeing an inflammatory headline and not thinking about it
No I was quoting the BBC
Here it is from March - I referenced it at the time
Amazon rainforest cut down to build highway for COP climate summit
The infrastructure required to host COP30 in Belém is undermining the cause, campaigners say.

You just couldn't make it up!
But they blend their own perspective on the issue.
It aims to ease traffic to the city, which will host more than 50,000 people - including world leaders - at the conference in November.

I have already given you a full explanation of why it is not true.
1) an 8 mile stretch of a 4 lane highway is about 60 acres, lets say 200 acres for all the additional works etc
so where is the 10,000 acres coming from?
2) its not being built for the COP30 summit:
the Avenida Liberdade highway was originally planned in 2012 and its purpose is connecting two existing transportation networks while providing an additional entry and exit path for the Belém Metropolitan Region
3) the highway project was not included among the 33 official infrastructure initiatives designated for COP30 preparation.
4) sine 1988 an average of 10,000 acres of Amazon rainforest has been lost every day
Now owners of electric cars will be charged £13.50 a day from 2 January in London
