Hello! We hope you are great!
Check out CNN's TV report about the challenges of preserving the Atlantic Forest in Minas Gerais, southeastern state in Brazil, the tireless work of Iracambi NGO to keep our forest alive, and Juliana Vital’s life story, a descendant of the Puri people who inhabited this region for centuries.
The TV report was carried out in March of this year and is part of the “Call to Earth”, a global initiative from CNN to engage communities the world over in making a difference to protect the future of our planet.
“Much of Brazil's coastline was once covered by the Atlantic Forest”, said Julia Vargas Jones, the CNN reporter on her Instagram page. “Earlier this year, we had the incredible privilege of heading to the edge of this threatened ecosystem and follow a group of people fighting to restore it to its former glory, and protect the region’s rich biodiversity”, she highlighted.
Happy reading, and have a nice week!
Iracambi Team
