From: http://hvg.heinemann.co.uk/login.aspx. A short report on the construction of the Trans-Amazonian Highway: this road is the first of many gigantic road-building projects; parts of the road are blocked due to the encroachment of the forest, we see machinery removing vegetation and leaving a track of red earth through the jungle; but other roads have helped open up Brazil to colonisation and development.
once they finish this road the rainforest is toast!!
