Brazil Clears Amazon Land for Climate Conference Road
⏺ A controversial highway cutting through protected Amazon rainforest is under construction ahead of the COP30 climate summit in Belém. The project, intended to improve traffic flow for the event, has led to deforestation and community displacement.

⏺ As world leaders prepare to discuss climate solutions, the impact of their gathering on the rainforest raises uncomfortable questions.
