Carlos Nobre, Ph.D., Senior Scientist, Institute of Space Research and Chair, Scientific Committee of IGBP, Brazil
"The years 2004-2006 witnessed significant and continued reductions of deforestation rates in the Amazon. Those reductions represented avoided emissions of over 800 thousand ton of CO2. It is clear that Brazilian Government policies to curb illegal deforestation, selective logging and biomass burning played a role. It is, however, urgent and essential to develop the scientific and technological basis for sustainable use of the tropical forests of the world to bring tropical deforestation to a halt in the long run."
