Four Corners: Saving the Amazon

Synopsis

The Amazon is one of the most precious natural habitats in the world and plays a vital part in regulating the planet's temperature. So when alarming pictures emerged in 2019 of the Amazon on fire, the world was shocked. These fires were so big they could be seen from space, leaving many to ask how could this have happened? Why wasn't the forest being protected? The fires exposed a startling new truth about Brazil. Far from preserving the forest, the Brazilian Government is allowing the Amazon to be felled at an alarming new rate. In the last year, forest destruction soared by 85%. Far from giving up, Indigenous tribes, scientists and activists are fighting back. With huge profits to be made, the Amazon is a dangerous place to ask questions. Despite the threat, the Amazonian tribes want the world to hear their message.
