Huwã Karu Yuxibu, the cultural centre of the Huni Kuin indigenous group in the Amazonian state of Acre, was destroyed by fire in August.
You didn’t cause the fires, but you can help prevent them spreading.
Fire doesn’t have to be destructive. For many in the Amazon, it is part of their livelihood and culture.
What the Amazon fires mean for Jair Bolsonaro politically.
If the Amazon rainforest functions as our planet’s lungs, what do raging wildfires threaten? An atmospheric scientist explains why the fires, though devastating, won’t suffocate life on Earth.
Rainforest species didn’t co-evolve with fire – and even a low intensity wildfire can kill half the trees.
While the world watches the Brazilian Amazon burn, across the border in Bolivia it’s also ablaze.
Don’t blame climate change for the 39,000 forest fires now incinerating huge tracts of the Brazilian Amazon. This environmental catastrophe is human-made and highly political.
The Amazon is burning at record levels, and land clearing is to blame. The good news: we already know what we need to do to stop it.
Ghana’s quest to fill a significant infrastructure deficit has led to a barter deal with China that threatens one of West Africa’s most important environmental spaces.
Indonesia has permanently banned new clearing of primary forest and peatland. Here are three benefits of the policy.
The world has no hope of reaching the goals of the Paris Agreement without seriously reducing emissions from agriculture, forestry and land clearing.
Brazil’s deforestation rate is back up. The UN Security Council has three main options.

Our work represents the first assessment of what social and economic factors are connected to environmental degradation across the entire African continent.
Thousands of years of history tells the same story over and over: you ignore soil at your peril.
The impact of deforestation for oil palm plantations is well known – and now research has found the replanting process could be additional harm to biodiversity.
