Amazon Rainforest Faces Record Drought and Fires in 2024

Credited from: APNEWS

  • 2024 was a devastating year for the Amazon rainforest, marked by severe drought and the highest number of wildfires since 2005.
  • The situation, driven by a warming climate, exacerbated deforestation efforts, with some fires suspected to be intentionally set for land clearance.
  • Despite challenges, deforestation rates fell in Brazil and Colombia, reflecting policy changes aimed at environmental protection.
  • Global leaders gathered at COP16 in Colombia to enhance Indigenous involvement in conservation, recognizing their critical role in preserving the Amazon.
  • Experts warn that the ecological tipping point for the Amazon could be imminent without urgent action to combat illegal exploitation and environmental degradation.
