To Save the Amazon, Brazil Is Betting You Can’t Just Save the Trees

Update: 2024-10-24

Description

On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg’s Brazil bureau chief Vanessa Dezem joins host Sarah Holder to talk through the link between poverty and deforestation and the country’s new efforts to save its rainforest by building up local economies.
