> "As Brazil intensifies its crackdown on companies tied to illegal deforestation, this ruling could help pave the way for future legal action, including against JBS, the world’s largest meat-processing company."

This will never happen. JBS is a big financer and friends with the ruling mafia (government).

Just to give you an idea. The owner of JBS bought a bankrupt energy distributor for a bargain and soon after, the government announced a recovery plan for this distributor through a fee that is being paid on the electricity bill by consumers across the country. Also JBS became big as it is today due to generous over-the-counter loans with negative rates by a state bank (BNDES) during the Worker's Party (PT) previous governments.
