Rio De Janeiro (AFP) April 8, 2022
Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon set a new quarterly record in the first three months of 2022 compared to a year earlier, official data showed Friday.
Satellite images revealed the destruction of 941 square kilometers (363 square miles) of rain forest – the highest quarterly rate since the start of Brazil’s Deter monitoring program in 2015.
This is an area about the size of Dallas.
