In October 2017, Greenpeace accompanied teams from the Brazilian Institute for the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) in a series of inspections of Sustainable Forest Management Plans (PMFS) in western Pará state. The operation goal was to identify fraud in forest inventories, such as the indication of nonexistent trees or overestimation of the volume of wood. Nonconformities were found in all plans visited. The field verification corroborates the report "Imaginary Trees, Real Destruction", which exposes the fragility of Brazil's PMFS licensing system, which allows illegal timber to be sold in the national and international markets.
