• Resumen

  • Satellite images of the Amazon rainforest are startling. Islands of green are surrounded by brown areas of land cleared for farming. In places, the brown advances, year by year. But in others, the forest holds firm. Mostly, the surviving green areas belong to local tribes. Here, Pearce narrates how global intervention in tropical forests to fight climate change could sideline their most effective guardians.
