You actually believe that the stuck-up "intellectuals" will look at a KZbinr for information? Most of the scientists, and especially the ecologists and biologists, have their heads stuck so far up their asses that they can't see the light of day. The majority of them are stuck doing monotonous work for NFPO's or idiotic scientific research that has no importance for nature or conservation. In fact, most scientific research I've been involved in are actually deleterious to the environment with the amount of polluting garbage they (the "scientists") bring in the field. I prefer the work that CrimePaysButBotanyDoesnt over that of the scientists of our generation.

I work on deforestation and land conversion issues and these are extremely at-risk ecosystems, thank you for highlighting them. There are three major biomes in Minas Gerais, the Mata Atlântica, the Cerrado and the Caatinga. They are Tropical Dry Forests, only one third of which still exists in the Americas. Although sustainability issues have a hope under President Lula as opposed to Bolsonaro, many ecosystems in Brazil are being pushed to, and likely past, their tipping points. Less than 50% of the original ecosystems are intact in the Cerrado, at most 25% of the Mata Atlântica remains, and it is very fragmented because of extensive urban development, and about 50% of the Caatinga has been converted to human uses. Badass plants may be fire-adapted but none can compete against land conversion, most of which is for agriculture. I always love your videos but I especially appreciated those you did in the southern US where they are destroying the ecology to build the stupid wall, as you gave context on the land you were exploring and the local risks to the flora and fauna. It would be fantastic if you could have an informed local Brazilian do that here, especially if there is more to come of your Brazilian travels! Your audience may be a bunch of delinquents, or at least I am one, but I think we are a good group, and the more you arm us with information, the more we will use it. Thank you for all you do!!

Latin Americans just need to slow down on the breeding. Humans need development and farming to survive, so I get where Bolsanaro was coming from, but the growth is unsustainable. Meanwhile in the Anglosphere, Europe, and the more modernized parts of Asia we are seeing sub replacement birth rates which are a whole different problem due to different cultural values and economic pressures.

Whatever your system is, it's working, keep it up. Love the plants and nature too, especially when rough days of fatigue and migraines hit me out of nowhere. Or when I have to shut the windows and put on headphones because somebody starts mowing or chainsawing or jackhammering.
That was really interesting. Lots of diversity, but also so alien and different from what we see in temperate climates or suburban gardens.
