Caption/Description

A view of the Amazon Rainforest near Claudia in Mato Grosso, Brazil, set ablaze during the burning season when large sections of it are torched by farmers, to clear it for soy farming or cattle grazing, Sept. 17, 2007. Brazil is the forth largest emitter of greenhouse gases on the planet, with 75% of those coming from the destruction of the rainforest.
