MANAUS, BRAZIL - During my food trip to Brazil there was no place I wanted to visit more than the Amazon Rainforest. We flew to Manaus (if you look at a map, Manaus is directly in the heart center of the Amazon). The jungle, the unique dishes and fruits, and the people made it incredible.
Exotic fruit tasting - One of the things that you have to do when you’re in Brazil, especially in the Amazon is sample all the unique and indigenous fruits of the region, some that are only available there. We started with mari-mari, an amazing long pod fruit and have inga (ice cream bean fruit) and biribá - wild sugar apple. All the fruit - 10 BRL ($2.55)
Manaus is a pretty big city, especially for being in the heart of the Amazon Rainforest. They have a big market, full of fruits, vegetables and fish. We headed straight for some tucumã, a type of palm tree fruit that’s essential in the local diet.
Jenipapo - Along the way we also tried some jenipapo, a pretty unique fruit.
Tucumã sandwiches - Sandwich shop owners better take note! Tucumã sandwiches are a true Amazonian food and they are delicious. Along with the palm fruit they were paired with cheese and fried sweet banana. It’s a perfect breakfast and way to start the day in the Amazon. Price - about 10 BRL ($2.55) per sandwich
Tambaqui fish - Tambaqui is a fish from the Amazon that’s known for having ribs - seriously almost like pork ribs. We decided to get a fish to bring to the village since we weren’t sure what they’d have al the village.
Amazon village - We didn’t really have a plan, we were just going to find a boat driver and ask him to take us to a village and see if anyone could cool. So we got a boat, and our boat driver asked if they were home and if we could invite ourselves in. We arrived completely unplanned and unannounced and it turned out to be an outstanding learning experience and fun time with an amazing family in the Amazon.
Along with the food we brought, the family mixed up about 4 different exotic drinks - some of them known in the Western world as ingredients in trendy energy drinks - but here in the Amazon of Brazil they are consumed regularly.
It was such an awesome Brazilian Amazonian food meal with the family followed by a time of drumming and dancing, football, and finally a swim in the river. It was an extraordinary day in the Amazon of Brazil.

Amazon rainforest burning at record rate
Fires are raging at a record rate in Brazil's Amazon rainforest, and scientists warn that it could strike a devastating blow to the fight against climate change.
The fires are burning at the highest rate since the country's space research center, the National Institute for Space Research (known by the abbreviation INPE), began tracking them in 2013, the center said.
There have been 72,843 fires in Brazil this year, with more than half in the Amazon region, INPE said. That's more than an 80% increase compared with the same period last year.
The Amazon is often referred to as the planet's lungs, producing 20% of the oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere.
It is considered vital in slowing global warming, and it is home to uncountable species of fauna and flora. Roughly half the size of the United States, it is the largest rainforest on the planet.

A massive wildfire is currently ravaging the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. According to experts, the fire is not only one of the worst on record for the region, but it could also cause a ripple effect with climate change for years to come.
The Amazon produces about 20 percent of the oxygen in Earth's atmosphere. The rainforest is also home to some three million species of plants and animals, along with one million indigenous people.

The Amazon rainforest in Brazil is burning. Who started the fires? | The Fact Checker
As the Amazon rainforest in Brazil burns, it seems like everyone is in search of someone to blame. There have been nearly 100,000 fires detected this year so far but who or what is responsible?
Fires in the rainforest don’t start themselves, but that doesn’t mean they are unusual. Every year in the dry season, between August and October, deforestation fires are set by people who are clearing land for a wide variety of reasons — farming, ranching, mining, illicit activities, infrastructure.
Like many natural resources, the Amazon is caught in a tug of war between economic growth and environmental protections — and in that war politics almost always come into play. Some in the international community were quick to blame Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro for the flames. But he said non-governmental organizations were behind the fires and his environmental minister, Ricardo Salles, claimed the weather was an intensifier. Environmental activists pointed to large agribusinesses. And 2020 Democratic presidential candidate former congressman John Delaney (D-Md.) said it was Trump’s trade war with China that started it all.
All of those explanations can’t be accurate simultaneously, since they contradict each other. The Fact Checker digs into what exactly has been going on in the fight over Brazil’s natural resources. Read more: Subscribe to The Washington Post on YouTube:

The destruction of the Amazon, explained
The 2019 fires were just the tip of the iceberg.

The Amazon rainforest has been reduced by about 17% since the 1970s. Cattle ranchers, loggers, and farmers are mostly to blame for the deforestation, but the demand driving them comes from all around the world. Brazil's economy depends on agriculture, especially beef and soy, which is grown on cleared land in the Amazon. Today, president Jair Bolsonaro, is weakening the environmental protections there in order to give agriculture more power. This came to a head when, in summer 2019, more than 30,000 wildfires burned in the Amazon, sparking worldwide outrage.

Anaconda in the Amazon Jungle
Hello everybody. This is a video I am not particularly proud of. Looking back in time this is a thing I wouldn't do now and I regret doing. Both fishing the piranhas or annoying the anaconda were stupidities that violated animals. Now I am learning more about the rights of animals and trying to respect nature in every possible way. Cheers to all and sorry for the disturbing images

Surge in deforestation in Amazon rainforest | Hotspots
he world's biggest river flows through the world's biggest rainforest - it's the Amazon and it's under attack. Much of the forest is in Brazil, where the country's president Jair Bolsonaro, is accused of overseeing a new era of deforestation most believed had gone forever.
And he appears to be unrepentant. Illegal logging has soared this year. Environmental agencies have been left helpless by the government's indifference or even interference in stopping prosecutions.
Figures published in 2019 showed a sharp rise in deforestation by the statistics agency. The head of the government agency which compiled the data has since been fired. The Brazilian government argues it has the right to farm and to exploit its own natural resources.
Sky's Stuart Ramsay takes a closer look.

Brazil is sending 43,000 troops to fight the massive Amazon wildfire
Brazil’s president has deployed more than 43,000 army troops to battle blazing wildfires in the Amazon after an international outcry. Brazil's National Institute for Space Research has said that one-and-a-half soccer fields of Amazon rainforest are being destroyed every minute of every day.
Amazon Rainforest - Journey to the Heart of the Amazon
Prehistoric towers, waterfalls and deep canyons are surrounded here by rivers, lakes and rainforests bursting with life.
Crowning South America, Colombia touches both the Pacific and the Atlantic oceans.
Sitting on the equator, this wild and exotic land is divided by the soaring peaks of the Andes and carved by the mighty Amazon and Orinoco Rivers.
Colombia’s landscapes are vast and hugely diverse.
Mangroves meander through grasslands, while expanses of mirror-like wetlands fringe verdant rainforests.
Snow-capped peaks emerge from mountain slopes clad in misty cloud forests.
This mix of pristine environments supports an enormous wealth of unique plants, as well as an extraordinary array of spectacular creatures.

Bolsonaro blames Amazon rainforest wildfires on green groups | DW News
Brazil's right wing president Jair Bolsonaro says non-governmental organisations may have intentionally started wildfires in the Amazon rainforest to embarrass him and his government. He offered no evidence to back up his claim. According to Brazil's space agency, a record number of almost 73,000 forest fires were recorded in the country already this year. The Amazon forest absorbs massive amounts of CO2. Losing the Amazon rainforest could mean losing one of the world's greatest natural defenses against climate change.
CORRECTION: In this video DW reports that the Amazon rainforest produces 20% of the world's oxygen. This figure was quoted widely by campaign groups, public figures and media organizations like DW. In fact, though the Amazon rainforest absorbs massive amounts of CO2, academics agree that it produces less than 10% of the world's oxygen.

Amazon forest fire: What it tells us about deforestation
The Amazon rainforest is burning at an accelerated rate. Here's how deforestation is contributing to climate change.
The main consensus: the fires were caused by human activity.
This isn’t the first time Brazil has suffered dramatic forest fires. 2015 and 2016 were particularly bad years with the warming of El Nino, when droughts allowed the fires to spread quickly.
But whether or not people are paying attention, it raises important questions about deforestation.

Drone footage reveals aftermath of Amazon fires
Aerial footage shows the desolation left in the wake of fires that have swept the Amazon rainforest over the last month. Six states in Brazil's Amazon region requested military help to combat record fires that are tearing through the rainforest. Environmentalists have said farmers clearing land for pasture were responsible for the uptick in fires. The Amazon is the world's largest tropical rainforest and its protection is seen as vital to the fight against climate change because of the vast amounts of carbon dioxide it absorbs
