  • The paper finds that Rural Settlements were responsible for 30% of total deforestation in the Amazon Biome in 2014. While traditional and colonization settlements showed only a correlation with deforestation due to their location on the agricultural frontier, 'Special Settlements'—those with environmental conditions—had a statistically significant positive impact on deforestation. This is attributed to their placement in remote, high-forest-coverage areas where any clearing for agricultural production represents a significant increase in local deforestation rates.
