There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
I don't want to delve too deeply into politics, but if the Brazilian political elite (or at least this current "president") has fanciful economic ambitions for their country at the expense of their greatest natural treasure then they will be sorry in the long run. The US of A will still strong-arm Brazil into doing whatever it wishes and Brazil will have no geopolitical power to determine it's own destiny. Of course, if the Amazon truly gets screwed over then all of South America will suffer big time.
