Brazil: Amazon sees worst deforestation levels in 15 years

The figures come after Brazil promised to end the practice by 2030 during the COP climate summit.

Hi @Andy Adcock , thank you for pointing this out.

Have you any thoughts about what we as a birding community could do to alleviate the situation? Not just regards to deforestation but also the wider issues of climate change? Both are seriously impacting on birding (as well as the planet).

I would figure that the economic value of birding/nature tourism is sufficient to help exert pressure where it's needed?
