Colombiaâs deforestation dropped 33% in early 2025 compared to last year, with significant reductions in Amazon national parks.
From the article:
Colombia saw a 33% drop in deforestation in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year, the environment ministry said Thursday, citing stronger community coordination and a crackdown on environmental crime.
Speaking at a press conference, Environment Minister Lena Estrada AĂąokazi said deforestation fell from 40,219 hectares in early 2024 to 27,000 hectares this year. The government identified 18 active deforestation hot spots, including 13 in the Amazon and others in regions like Catatumbo, Arauca and the Pacific north.
âIn the Amazonâs national parks, deforestation dropped by 54% ... which is a very good result,â Estrada said, highlighting gains in Amazonian parks Tinigua, Chiribiquete and La Macarena.

đłđŚđ Deforestation in Brazilâs Amazon rainforest fell sharply by 11% between August 2024 and July of this year! The decrease comes amid stronger environmental monitoring, along with increased enforcement of fines and seizures of machinery and livestock related to illegal forest clearing. In a significant drop from last year, deforestation in the region is at its lowest level in nearly a decade!
Brazilâs government says deforestation in the Amazon fell 11% in the year through July 2025 to its lowest level in nearly a decade, helped b
Just under 50 percent of Amazon basin is under some form of protection, but advocates say pressure is mounting.
I just posted a story that told us that the delegates to the Marseilles meeting of the World Conservation Congress, an event held every four years by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), also voted to urge a moratorium on deep sea mining. Theyâve been busy doing good things, but I see these actions as sort of like preaching to the choir. The trick for success in the Amazon rainforest is persuading Brazilâs president, which doesnât even seem likely.
Excerpt from this story from Al Jazeera:
Indigenous groups are urging world leaders to back a new target to protect 80 percent of the Amazon basin by 2025, saying bold action is needed to stop deforestation pushing the Earthâs largest rainforest beyond a point of no return.
Amazonian delegates launched their campaign on Sunday at a nine-day conference in Marseille, France, where several thousand officials, scientists and campaigners are laying the groundwork for United Nations talks on biodiversity in the Chinese city of Kunming next year.
âWe invite the global community to join us to reverse the destruction of our home and by doing so safeguard the future of the planet,â Jose Gregorio Diaz Mirabal, lead coordinator for COICA, which represents Indigenous groups in nine Amazon-basin nations, told the Reuters news agency.
Just under 50 percent of the Amazon basin is currently under some form of official protection or Indigenous stewardship, according to research published last year. But pressure from ranching, mining and oil exploration is growing.
In Brazil, home to 60 percent of the biome, deforestation has surged since right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro took office in 2019, reaching a 12-year high last year and drawing an international outcry.
The Amazon basin as a whole has lost 18 percent of its original forest cover while another 17 percent has been degraded, according to a landmark study released in July by the Science Panel for the Amazon, based on research by 200 scientists.
"At this rate, we will not be able to keep global warming below 1.5ÂşC, a target defined in the Paris agreement," said the conservation insti
Despite the devastation caused by these and other activities, the Bolsonaro administration has vowed to accelerate Amazon exploitation, claiming the region is "unproductive" and "desert-like." The administration has also slashed funding for federal agencies tasked with catching and prosecuting illegal farmers and loggers, who are responsible for around 90% of Amazon deforestation, according to Greenpeace Brazil.
The new Imazon data was released two days after the publication of a study in the journal Global Change Biology showing that the impact of Amazon deforestation on rainfall amounts can be up to four times greater than estimated by scientists. The researchers concluded that vegetation loss could result in a 55% to 70% reduction in annual precipitation.
Imazon says there are many things people can do to help combat Amazon deforestation, including eliminating or limiting beef consumption, buying wood products made from trees in replanted forests, and voting for politicians "who prioritize an environmental agenda" over economic development.
Here's a tiny violin for JBS, a company responsible for mass deforestation in the Amazon, spreading COVID in Brazil, working with a farm that massacred native Amazonians, contributes to food scarcity, and murders hundreds of thousands of animals for no good reason.

As gold prices skyrocket amid the Covid-19 pandemic, a recent report uncovers the scale and impact of mining on Amazon countriesâ indigenous reserves. It found that over 20% of indigenous lands are overlapped by illegal mining and mining businesses, covering around 450K sq km (174K sq miles) â while 31%...
91% OF AMAZON DEFORESTATION IS CAUSED BY ANIMAL AGRICULTURE - PRIMARILY CATTLE-RANCHING AND THE GROWING OF SOY, THE MAJORITY OF WHICH IS FED TO LIVESTOCK. THE AMAZON IS LITERALLY BURNING AND OUR ENVIRONMENT IS ON THE BRINK.
but STILL you selfish fucks are out here acting like animal ag. isnât a problem, that animal ag. isnât to blame. youâre still out here acting like whining about the amazon on tumblr, signing a petition and posting anti-vegan memes is whatâs going to save the planet. spoiler warning: IT WONâT. still youâre out here insisting that you couldnât possibly even think about thinking about thinking giving up meat or reducing your intake, for [insert one of a million of provably bullshit exuses here]. we know what the problem is, we know what a big part of the solution is. if you care about the planet, even a little bit, go vegan. if you canât go vegan, reduce your intake of animal products as much as possible, particularly of beef. PLEASE. for the love of god
The Amazon rainforest can be described as the lungs of the planet, accounting for 20% of Earths O². Such a precious thing is being destroyed by the Brazilian president who supports deforestation and the cattle rancher hunger for greed.
What is the point of being aware of this if nobody does anything about it? Where are the snipers taking out these evil men?? Justice needs meted out accourdingly.
