A threat to the Amazon rainforest is a threat to our entire world.
But this precious ecosystem is at risk of reaching an irreversible tipping point, and we need to act now to protect it.
Without the Amazon, we lose the fight against #ClimateChange. 👇

The Amazon Rainforest
The Amazon rainforest plays a vital role in sustaining life on the planet. Yet, this vast, tropical wilderness and its inhabitants are losing the fight.

With respect, that’s a little simplistic . Development & clearance have had a huge impact. Simply remove the sheep & you will not have a “rainforest” land (but will have a devastated farming sector). Our forestscape is the result of many drivers , across time & space, sheep are just 1 element.
