The Landscape Monitoring, related to agriculture, is held annually. From data analysis and satellite imagery, our team of researchers maps critical areas in the biome to be checked and documented. Despite the agricultural sector selling the image of 'modern and environmentally sustainable', the reality that we see in the field is another one: small and large deforestation, soy production and cattle breeding in areas that have been embargoed, forest fires - including within indigenous lands - and illegal logging. This year, our teams traveled northern Brazil from east to west, through the states of Amazonas, Rondônia, Mato Grosso, and Pará.Em novembro de 2015 a equipe do Greenpeace esteve em campo para verificar “in loco” o desmatamento da Amazônia. O Monitoramento de Paisagem, relacionado a agropecuária, é realizada anualmente. A partir de análises de dados e imagens de satélite, nossa equipe de pesquisadores mapeia áreas críticas no bioma a serem checadas e documentadas. Apesar de o setor agropecuário vender a imagem de “moderno e ambientalmente sustentável”, a realidade que se vê em campo é outra: desmatamentos de pequena e grande extensão, produção de soja e criação de gado em áreas embargadas pela justiça, incêndios florestais - inclusive dentro de terras indígenas - e extração ilegal de madeira. Este ano nossas equipes rasgaram de leste a oeste o norte do Brasil, passando pelo Amazonas, Rondônia, Mato Grosso e Pará.Related Collections:Amazon Landscape Monitoring 2015 - all photographers
