rel-sintese-rios-voadores-8b81fb12d5536ba7.pdf
This report by the Climate Policy Initiative (CPI/PUC-Rio) and Amazônia 2030 examines the economic risks posed by the deforestation of the Amazon rainforest, specifically focusing on the disruption of 'flying rivers' (rios voadores). These atmospheric currents transport moisture from the Atlantic Ocean across the continent, regulating rainfall essential for Brazil's energy, agriculture, urban water supply, and logistics. The document argues that protecting the forest is a strategic national imperative to avoid multi-billion real losses across key economic sectors.
