Brazil's Development Without Long Term Damage to the Amazon

Brazilian development profile that does not cause long-term damage to Amazon Brazilian development profile As part of this article, without sacrificing Brazilian Amazon tropical rainforest problems and the ability to use these resources with tropical rainforest resources I will explain how to develop it. It is the future. In other words, Brazil says it should not cause long-term damage to tropical rainforests when mining resources. This is called sustainable development and as it implies, it means maintaining the environment while continuing to develop their needs.

Because most of the Amazon basin (> 70%) is in Brazil, most of our research concentrates on Amazon in Brazil. Since the late 1950s, many new roads directly connected to the Amazon tropical forest were built to develop the western and northern part of Brazil. Construction of these routes and other incentives (such as cattle farms, hydropower projects, timber mining etc) are aimed at expanding development and integrating the entire region into the national economy. This plan succeeded with people following these major paths; for example during the first 20 years of construction, 2 million people moved along Belem Brasilia. Major trunk roads and Amazon forest settlements are not very organized and lead to long-lasting unnoticed deforestation

Brazil's Trans Amazon Expressway is one of the most economically designed developments in history and is one of the most convincing failures. In the 1970s, Brazil opened the tropical rainforest with two parts of the Amazon forest, settled from a dry northern region where poor farmers were densely, to develop wood and mineral resources 2,000 I planned to build a mile highway. Settlers will receive easy access to agricultural loans in exchange for 250 acres of land, wages for six months, and conversion to villages along highways and farmland of surrounding rain forests. In this plan, Brazilian $ 65,000 will increase against the house's $ 1980. This is an amazing amount of money for Brazilian developing countries at the time.

For a long time, Brazil has relied on Amazon's huge resources to generate electricity. Currently, over 70% of the country's electricity is generated by hydroelectric power generation. As a result, the proportion of Brazilian electricity sector to carbon emissions is very low. However, reliance on this hydroelectric power generation causes various problems. The government must force local indigenous people resettled. In addition, excessive dam construction can disturb the natural flow of the river. This affects the ecosystem supported by the river.
