Aftermath of Fires in Pantanal, Brazil
In 2020, large-scale fires consumed more than 20% of the Pantanal wetlands, in the midwest of Brazil. The recurrent lack of rainfall in the region, in addition to the total absence of environmental protection policies, started an unprecedented crisis, which puts people and the biome's rich biodiversity at risk. In September, Greenpeace Brazil visits the region to bear witness to the problem and provide support to associations that operate in the Pantanal.

Expedição do Greenpeace no Pantanal, setembro de 2020
Mato Grosso (BR). Em 2020, incêndios de grandes proporções consumiram mais de 20% do Pantanal, no centro-oeste do Brasil. A falta de chuvas recorrente na região, somada à ausência de políticas de proteção ambiental, deram início a uma crise sem precedentes, que coloca em risco pessoas e a rica biodiversidade do bioma. Em setembro o Greenpeace esteve na região, para registrar o problema e levar apoio às organizações que atuam no Pantanal.
