COP30

The Amazon is the largest tropical rainforest in the world. It is home to approximately 20% of the planet's flora and fauna, as well as 20% of global freshwater (located in the Amazon Basin). By hosting 60% of the rainforest's 6.92 million square kilometres, Brazil bears the most significant responsibility for protecting this planetary lung. This text provides an overview of the Brazilian government's most recent actions on environmental issues and their potential impact on the Amazon rainforest.
