The world's first "nature superpower" | Ilona Szabó de Carvalho

Over the last 40 years, Brazil has lost an area larger than California to deforestation — and 90 percent of the clear-cutting has been illegal, all part of a multi-billion-dollar global environmental crime economy.

Get a glimpse of what an economy rooted in regeneration, not extraction, could look like.
