Brazil, the rainforest, and the environment has hit the headlines quite a bit over the past couple of years.

And rightfully so.

And now, with more burning of the Amazon in the North of Brazil, the rainforest is back in the headlines.

It’s hard not to feel slightly paralyzed – wondering how on earth we can help. And be some sort of change in the face of all of this destruction.

Today we talk to Binka, co-founder of Iracambi, a Brazilian organization working to make the conservation of the Atlantic Rainforest more attractive than its destruction.

You will learn things you didn’t know about the state of the rainforest.

Binka helps paint a very real picture of the situation.

She tells us what keeps her up at night.

But also tells us what gives her hope.

You’ll also learn about how Covid is impacting the communities close to Iracambi. And it’s not what you’d expect.
