Julianna Santos has a new piece in University of Melbourne’s Pursuit.
As the world’s biggest rainforest continues to burn, Julianna argues that it’s important to understand the political and social situation in Brazil that led us to this point.
Why is the Amazon is burning? What’s the relationship between these fires and the political situation in Brazil? And what are the local and global implications of these fires?

Update 08/10/19: Now you can listen to Julianna discuss these themes on ‘The Grapevine’ program on Triple R, 102.7FM, Melbourne.
