Caption/Description

A view of burnt Amazon Rainforest near Alta Floresta in Para State, 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. 18, 2007. By 2006 the Amazon Rainforest had already lost 17% of its surface due to human intervention.
