24 de junho de 2026 e está chovendo na Asa Norte. Fico automaticamente feliz porque meu corpo reage muito bem à umidade do ar. Racionalmente, sei que é um péssimo sinal e que dias terríveis virão.

Does clearing forests in places like #Papua #Indonesia, or clearing grasslands in #Cerrado #Brazil actually help create “sustainable” transport fuel?

The energy crisis sparked by the Iran war has spurred renewed interest in the fuels, but some experts are skeptical of their scalability and environmental benefits.

Does clearing forests in places like #Papua #Indonesia, or clearing grasslands in #Cerrado #Brazil actually help create “sustainable” transport fuel? The ecological consequences often outweigh any tailpipe emission savings. For Semafor, I explore the massive risks and hidden costs of #BigOil’s aggressive pivot to #Biofuels.

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🌳📉 In 2025, #Brazil’s #Amazon #deforestation fell over 23%, with clearing on #Indigenous lands at its lowest since 2016.

Researchers credit stronger enforcement, better satellite tracking, and market pressure for sustainable #farming. However, the #Cerrado still lost 55% of Brazil’s total forest, and #Batelão territory saw a 10,000% spike as #soy #farms pushed onto protected land.

Amazon deforestation declines as Brazil reduces forest loss nationwide

Deforestation in Brazil’s Amazon biome fell by 23.5% in 2025 compared with 2024, according to a new report from MapBiomas, a Brazil-based land-use mapping project. Reductions in deforestation were recorded across the board in all of Brazil’s biomes, culminating in a 21% nationwide decrease in forest loss. In total, nearly 985,000 hectares (2.4 million acres) […]

🌎🌿Why does this matter? Many Cerrado species already show naturally low fruit set. Additional reductions under future warming scenarios could affect: recruitment, migration capacity, species persistence, ecological interactions and community structure. (10/10)
