An analysis of over 30 years of fire patterns, however, rev...

This work, using a bottom-up approach based on interviews, nicely complements actor typologies derived using top-down approaches, such as in our land system typology here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #GranChaco #SystemShift

#Agriculture expansion is a key driver of #biodiversity loss globally. Biodiversity decline in the #GranChaco, a tropical dry #forest region in #SouthAmerica, is linked to both #beef and #soybean (= #livestock feed) production, and to the domestic & foreign demand for these: doi.org/10.1016/j.gl...

Santander apoyó a una de las principales empresas relacionadas con la deforestación a pesar de su compromiso de neta cero Cresud, una empresa argentina de "bienes raíces agrícolas", es responsable por la deforestación que triplica en tamaño a Madrid y por emisiones significativas de carbono

Muy buena la nueva investigación de @globalwitness.org sobre las complicidades entre Santander y Cresud para la deforestación en Sudamérica

+170.000 hectáreas en Argentina, Brasil, Bolivia y Paraguay desde 2001, un área tres veces mayor que Madrid.

The Amazon has international scrutiny but the huge #GranChaco is quietly disappearing.

Pinprick land grabs: under 500 acres are deforested instead of thousands. Looks like nothing is happening, but everything is. By then it’s too late.

HSBC caught funding deforestation in South America. Again, another hollow pledge exposed. Banks profit while the planet pays. Enough with the greenwashing. Hold them accountable!
