In the Amazon, forest degradation is outpacing full deforestation

Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon has increased abruptly in the past two years, after having been on a downward trajectory for more than a decade. With the country’s president Jair Bolsonaro notoriously enthusiastic about expanding into the rainforest, new deforestation data regularly makes global headlines.                                                                                          

But what fewer people realize is that even forests that have not been cleared, or fully “deforested,” are rarely untouched. Indeed, just 20% of the world’s tropical forests are classified as intact. The rest have been impacted by logging, mining, fires, or by the expansion of roads or other human activities. And all this can happen undetected by the satellites that monitor deforestation.

These forests are known as “degraded,” and they make up an increasingly large fraction of the world’s remaining forest landscapes. Degradation is a major environmental and societal challenge. Disturbances associated with logging, fire and habitat fragmentation are a significant source of CO₂ emissions and can flip forests from carbon sinks to sources, where the carbon emitted when trees burn or decompose outweighs the carbon taken from the atmosphere as they grow.

Forest degradation is also a major threat to biodiversity and has been shown to increase the risk of transmission of emerging infectious diseases. And yet despite all of this, we continue to lack appropriate tools to monitor forest degradation at the required scale.

New research published in the journal Science by a team of Brazilian and US researchers led by Eraldo Matricardi has taken an important step towards tackling this challenge. By combining more than 20 years of satellite data with extensive field observations, they trained a computer algorithm to map changes in forest degradation through time across the entire Brazilian Amazon. Their work reveals that 337,427 km² of forest were degraded across the Brazilian Amazon between 1992 and 2014, an area larger than neighboring Ecuador. During this same period, degradation actually outpaced deforestation, which contributed to a loss of a further 308,311 km² of forest.

This is very important, please do not ignore this.

Watch the video till the very end please (the end is when the explosion goes off.)

I live in Lebanon and the fiercest explosion went off in the midst of Beirut today, killing off an ungodly amount of human beings (more and more people are dying as I write this) and injuring up to 5000 people whose cases are immensely critical. Today,, at approximately 6 pm, hospitals were completely torn to shreds, people have been buried underneath fallen buildings, fires have been ignited almost everywhere, blood staining the streets in an excruciating manner, in addition to people that flew and fell to the sea due to the impact of the explosion. And it is certainly worth mentioning the millions upon millions' worth of damages what with buildings and cars and stores. Plenty of people are missing, it's an overall mess that is quite frankly very traumatizing.

What Lebanese people have been undergoing in recent times:

Lebanon has been going through a major economical decline that grows worse and worse by the day. The prices have heightened and the salaries remain the same, scarcely anyone has the capacity of affording basic needs anymore. There has been an unfolding revolution the past year, and the lebanese society has been protesting against the humiliation thrust upon our lives due to our miserable excuse for a government, and though the streets bled with thrashing, screaming citizens fighting for their utmost basic human rights, that caused mere to no change in the way things go around here, in fact, it only made it worse. We're being provided with, metaphorically, a droplet's worth of water and nearly no electricity, a pregnant woman has even passed away recently due to a heat stroke (as there were no means of cooling off)

What caused the setting off of this explosion?

The ignorance, heartlessness, and overall brutality of the government and the people in control.

A critical amount of chemicals (2700 tons of ammonium and other nitrates) were left inside a ship along the port of Beirut, and though the people in charge of this transaction were warned that heat and perspiration have the capability of destroying the whole of Lebanon in ode to a massive explosion, they refused to do anything about it and left the chemicals in there for years on end.

Up until, surprise surprise, the explosion went off and devestated Lebanon almost entirely.

I don't have much followers, and I know that this post isn't going to magically heal what is unfolding in this, priorly gorgeous, magnificent country, but I truly hope with all my heart that you find it within yours to spread awareness on this topic so that it would be more widespread,, so that Lebanon gets the aiding it deserves and the people from outer places slap the 'big bosses' awake, or at least pressure them into resigning, whatever it takes to make this place sufferable, tolerable, somewhere you can picture yourself residing in.

Lebanon is a place of infinite traditions, diversity, creativity, joy, and love. Most of the people here are open-hearted and wholesome. We all deserve far better.

My heart aches for the people that have passed away today, and I shall pray for the ones stuck in hellish suffering.

This is important.

Been hearing a lot about "reparations" lately? Well, this is one way to start working towards that, since those in power certainly won't.

today we woke up in brazil to this news: a black woman were working through the quarentine as a maid and had to bring her five year old child to work. her boss sent her to walk the dogs and the woman left her children with her boss. the boy started to cry cause he wanted his mom and the woman gets annoyed by him cause she was really busy doing her nails. so, she PUTS A FIVEYEAROLD KID ALONE in a elevator so he could go to his mom. The boy gets lost in the building and end up in the ninth floor, where he falls on the interspace NINE FLOORS and DIE.

his murder, his mother boss, who is white and hid her face from the papers, paid the bail and gets free. this is brazil. a motherfucker place which sells the ideia of being such a nice country, where everyone is warmful and caring; but in reality are really a place grown by structural racism and violence, with a uneven justice system. we need to make justice to this little boy. it was literally a cold blooded murder and his murder can’t just pay a bail and walk away. HIS LIFE MATTERED!!!! WE ARE NOT GOING TO KEEP IT QUIET ANYMORE

The first pride was a riot, more specifically a riot against police violence. Trans women of colour like Marsha P. Johnson paved the way for the celebration of pride today. You cannot celebrate your pride this month, or any month if you aren’t also supporting Black Lives Matter and the riots going on against police violence right now. Us white LGBTQ+ need to stand up for our black siblings and their rights, their struggles. We need to amplify their voices and show any support we can. (Edited to add links and make the image clearer)

Idek if ppl still follow me here or if them even care but anyways uh... hello :> hmm okay so stuff happend i stoped drawing mostly because i’m a depressed bitch, but i’m coming back it that! Slowly but i’m. I'm focused on traditional art also here some life updates:

I'm trying to get into an art school here in Brazil, but my grades were not very good (here we have to do a test that involves all areas of knowledge so like I want to do art but I'll have to answer things about biology, chemistry anyway) the grades I need for the art college I want are really ... high but it was enough for me to go into history at the same college so i will try to transfer course but for that my grades need to be above average and i am on the way so yea never give up or whatever.

Uh okay i go by she/they now yeah, i really prefer they/them but i got that i’m a really “feminine” person but i'm glad that i finally assumed that to the others and especially understand me as me.

History college is really cool and the teachers are so open minded (?) it surprised me and made me very happy,(ok ok has like a teacher who in short sucks but i can handle him) and now I'm more nerdy than before, and I was surprised that in history we do things like video production, photography and theater !! I am happy not to disconnect so much from art in this course.

I was diagnosed with ADHD and and a mild degree of autism and i was like WAIT WHAT and then i was like oh okay that makes sense.

ALSO! I’m basically all the time on my personal blog: https://rosagraphic-stuffs.tumblr.com/ i don’t know it’s just a lot of reblogs and sometimes i post some stuff.

[graphics-de-rosa]

I’m back (not really)

So whats’up it this new name url bla bla bla.

First things first my computer is old and my tablet is fucking dead, so yeah i draw a little on paper but i was too depresed and dind’t like anything so yeah... I'm coming back slowly, but still in the middle of this mess my art style has changed a little and i think i like it (but is really simple) i have some drawings save on the computer that i think i can finish with the mouse but i wanna comeback to draw and be back here is a motivation

The new name is just because i want resartat :)

[graphics-de-rosa]

hey happy halloween i din’t draw anything sorry

[graphics-de-rosa]

Shit, I’m in the fucking closet guess i’ll be for longer now... I'm extremely sad and disappointed.

well... the new president of Brazil is Jair Bolsonaro. I already feared, even if “he is not so bad”,(like some people say) he has already stretched the ignorance... people celebrate his victory with shots and raising the flag but not as a form of worship to the motherland but rather a worship of a man and this is bad...

He is facist, racist, machist, ignorant religious, homopobhe and xenophobic. I just hope people out there are fine,

nós seremos a resistência! Ele não! Ele nunca!

It also scares me that he does not care about art culture and philosophy many teachers can lose their job! And I want to work in the artistic world! And that, that discourages me...
