Oh look another study that will be entirely ignored. Brazil will be selling their beef to China now anyways.
That sounds strange to me, since we’ve long been aware of the absolute travesty that is clear-cutting/burning old and ancient rain forest…
Unless it’s even worse than we thought 🤔
Edit: “When we looked the biodiversity impact of deforestation across thirteen different eco-regions in Colombia, we found a 62% greater biodiversity loss than local survey results would indicate.”
Ah. Not worse than we thought in regard to ecosystem models, but worse than local surveys would measure.
