Subject: Amazon & the Anthropocene

Dear colleagues,

Here are two brief videos we’ve produced on the embattled Amazon rainforest.  They’re literally just a minute each.

How are Roads in the Amazon Spreading Fires? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0pyKsujHqA 
Why is Green Energy Destroying the Amazon? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9bDrLhNBfk&feature=youtu.be 
We have various other short, snappy videos available here ( https://www.global-roadmap.org/videos/<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.global-roadmap.org%2Fvideos%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C2791406b7ac4486c7dbf08d74cb12051%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637062196959529449&sdata=wEJDPHzMdtVomm64xBnWBVAxplCZXhaQ4YAzoPd%2BVD0%3D&reserved=0 
>).  These are good resources for students and anyone interested in highly topical conservation issues.

Finally, the attached article helps introduce an excellent set of papers on the Anthropocene, just published in Current Biology.  The two-page essay asks how aliens visiting the Earth might perceive what’s happening here.

Please forward to others who’d be interested.

Thanks much,

Bill
