Boots and training shoes are not the first things that spring to mind when you think about the causes of rainforest destruction and climate change. 'Slaughtering the Amazon' shows the connections between beef and leather production in the Amazon and illegal deforestation, financed by some of our best known global footwear brands.

  • @bertwindon You heard it right, but didnt hear the truth. I live in Brazil, extreme south, 3.000km away from the beginning of the amazon and the same law that they have there, we have here, even because is the same country. So, the thing is that my grandfather cutted exacly eight trees in one forest and do you think that nothing happened? He had a penalty of U$5,600 and if he didn't pay within a month, he would go to jail. Don't believe this, it's lie, government interest, fake information. LIES

  • The government was said to be FUNDING it if I heard right !!

  • An interesting new perspective on old problem. A perfect storm of greed and irresponsibility and lax government controls.
