The Amazon rainforest is one of the world’s most important ecosystems, responsible for absorbing huge amounts of C02. But as it slowly disappears at the hands of extractivist industries, it is more important than ever to find new solutions for saving it.
In Tree of Plenty, we witness the story of one community who brought a tree back from the brink of extinction, by turning it into a core economic provider. This female-led movement showed their island, and the world, that the Amazon’s natural capital can be leveraged without being abused.
Featuring leaders of the movement and Nobel Prize-winning climate scientist Carlos Nobre, Tree of Plenty is a glimpse into “Amazon 4.0” - the next step in saving the rainforest.
