From a news report, '' An eight-mile stretch of protected Amazon rainforest has been felled to make space for a new four-lane highway in time for the COP30 climate summit.

Drone footage and images have revealed thick dirt lanes cutting through the lush greenery as the Brazilian government prepare for the conference in November.''

BBC reported that a state infrastructure secretary had listed the new road among 30 projects preparing the city for COP30.
A BBC spokesperson said the report was "based on state government documents and an interview with a state government official" that "directly link the project to COP30."
"Further documentation shows the project for Avenida Liberdade was only approved in 2024, despite the idea being discussed as early as 2012," the spokesperson added.
