Jair Bolsonaro took power in Brazil in October 2018. Since that time he has waged a relentless war on one of the most delicate and essential ecosystems on the planet. The damage is now so severe and irreversible that the majority of the Amazon may well be nothing more than dry savannah land within 3 decades. This video looks at the scale of the challenge and what can be done.
