Ilona Szabó de Carvalho: Dünyanın ilk ''doğa süper gücü''

Dünyanın ilk ''doğa süper gücü''

Brezilya, 40 yılda Kaliforniya’dan büyük bir alanı kaybetti; üstelik kesimlerin %90’ı yasa dışıydı. Sivil girişimci Ilona Szabó de Carvalho, bu krizi fırsata çevirerek doğayı korumaktan kazanç sağlayan yeni bir ekonomik modelin ipuçlarını sunuyor. Brezilya’nın restorasyon hedefleri ve orman teknolojileriyle nasıl “doğa süper gücü”ne dönüştüğünü keşfedin.

Brazil is redefining what it means to be a superpower by building an economy that profits from keeping nature intact. Over 90 percent of recent deforestation in Brazil has been illegal, part of a global environmental crime industry worth $280 billion a year. Instead of relying on policing alone, Brazil is pioneering bold policies, bioeconomies, and restoration efforts that value standing forests more than cleared land. These innovations could inspire countries worldwide to make nature protection a path to prosperity.

Brazil Turns Forest Protection Into Economic Power

Transforming its approach to nature, Brazil is building an economy that profits by protecting rather than exploiting its forests. An area larger than California has been lost to deforestation in just four decades, with 90 percent of the clearing illegal. Now, the country is pioneering a new model that puts nature at the center of national policy, leveraging cutting-edge technology, Indigenous wisdom, and innovative finance. This approach aims not just to halt destruction but to create millions of jobs and inspire global change.
