Death of a Forest

The Amazon

With the highest deforestation rates

Extensive areas of the Amazon biome have been deforested

14.2% of the total of what is known as the Brazilian Legal Amazon

Has been deforested

Brazil needs to move quickly to take the lead in the effort to halt global warming

And take

Measures to reduce deforestation

Brazil’s

Government crackdowns on illegal deforestation

But

Amazon still at risk
