Introduction
I have to be very honest about the aim of this article. The aim of this book is not only to explain the current situation of the Amazon rainforest and in general of the main inter-tropical rainforests.
I want to describe a project that I think could be able to stop or contain the destruction of an entire ecosystem.
If you want to read the proposed project without further introduction, you can skip this part and go straight to the section The Project
; however, it is highly recommended to read these previous sections and in particular the section A Focus
to understand the roots of the problems that this project aims to solve: civil exploitation and roads. If there is an interest to collaborate and get involved, read the section Epilogue
.
During the article, it will be provided a to date picture of the Amazon rainforest, the main protagonists, the role of indigenous
people and why in most of the cases the cost/productive efficience of the damaging of the forest is not efficient and convenient at all and couldn’t ever compete with the same activities elsewhere.
Will be also given a distinction between industrial and civil exploitation: both of them are important to be understood, distinguished and highlighted because, in different ways, they are both dangerous and critical. The main solution proposed is aimed to face the civil exploitation.
This article is intended to be first step for the foundation of a non-profit (or partial non-profit) company aimed to make a difference in the fight against the climate change. In my opinion, the solutions again big challenges like this should be real, practical, studied with a scientific approach to the problem: protesting and waiting for someone else to do something, protesting requiring an action without proposing an action and without proposing solutions for modern problems is not a solution and never will be. This book is a first step because it aims to introduce the project to as many people as possible, looking for enthusiasts, volunteers and organizations that aim to do the good to join this kind of open source
project and open source
company.
Introducing this article, I also want to assert that, in my opinion, the only way to do something for the environment (or for the people, in general for any problematic situation) is through the technology, the innovation and the economy. Without at least one of these, any proposed solution is almost always intended for failure or for short period effects.
Our world is run by economy and this is a fact, that’s why it would be absurd to not consider it: if
