What to Focus On

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Deforestation in Amazonia is mainly a local forest issue and does not affect global climate or biodiversity.

Biodiversity is concentrated mostly in developed countries because they have more technology and better conservation systems.

Brazil stopped deforestation only by banning all forest use, so the success came from completely stopping agriculture and development.
