The Corridor of Life Forest may be turned into agro-business land starting September 2025. We want to stop it. With your help.
This forest with its 30,000 hectares is the most important forest in the Amazon area. It has direct impact on climate and biodiversity in a whole region, and on the life and livelihood of two indegenous nations. Together we can save it.
The Corridor of Life forest is the last corridor between the semdi-dry forest of Chiquitania to the south, and the more humid forests to the north.
Should this forest disappear, mammals cannot anymore migrate from north to south according to the seasons.
Further, the climate in the whole region will change.
With the change in climate and in biodiversity migration, then the conditions of life will change in the indigenous nations of Lomerio and Monte Verde.
Should this forest be lost to efficient agro-business operators, it is irreversible. The Corridor of Life Forest is a key area to the climate and the biodiversity in the western Amazon area.
The forest is at the moment being sold to a large Brazilian agro-business for soy farming, but together we can stop the conversion of the forest into fields.
Professor Johan Rockström says about the Corridor of Life forest:
“The loss of this forest would lead to accelerated degradation and drought in Chiquitania, which would risk leading to negative effects on other parts of the Amazon rainforest and affect water supply for communities downwind.
“If we lose the forests along the southeastern borders of the rainforest, it will spill over into other parts of the Amazon forest, as well as affect the freshwater supply further south (through “atmospheric rivers”). So, the consequences could be large and permanent.”
Professor Dr Johan Rockström is well-regarded as the Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. With over 25 years of experience working within the sustainability industry, his vast research findings have been shared with audiences in his publication ‘Breaking Boundaries: The Science Behind Our Planet’.
CALL FOR ACTION:
We have the methods and the team that can stop the sale and turn the forest into a surviving and lasting forest.
To secure the financing for the operation, we need carbon credit off-take agreements from you.
HOW TO DO IT:
We have established a team of experienced specialist within forestry, biology, forest food products, business economy, and supply chains to the market.
In cooperation with the indigenous nations depending on the forest, we can give the foret a tangible money value as a living forest, and still preserve it as a natural forest and home to countless species.
