The burning of the tropical rain forest, which releases carbon monoxide and destroys the ozone layer, is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect. This program explains the failure of a massive resettlement program, which lured millions of migrants to the Amazon. They cleared the forest with the hope of farming the land, only to discover that the soil was thin and infertile. Despite this, the Brazilian government continued to promote settlement which threatens many native Amazonian groups, including the Kaiapo Indians and rubber tappers. The film includes one of the last interviews with the late Chico Mendez, leader of the rubber tappers, who was murdered for his outspoken opposition to land clearance. As this program shows, the Western world is both culprit and victim in this tragedy. 001355197 530__ $$aPreviously released as DVD. 001355197 546__ $$aThis edition in English. 001355197 586__ $$aRed Ribbon, American Film & Video Festival, 1990 001355197 586__ $$aSan Antonio CineFest, 1991 001355197 650_0 $$aDeforestation$$zAmazon River Region. 001355197 650_0 $$aNature$$xEffect of human beings on$$zAmazon River Region. 001355197 650_0 $$aRain forest ecology$$zAmazon River Region. 001355197 650_0 $$aRain forest ecology. 001355197 651_0 $$aAmazon River Region. 001355197 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001355197 7102_ $$aCanadian Broadcasting Corporation.$$4pro 001355197 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?ENVV;2403329 001355197 901__ $$aASP2403329/envv$$bVaAlASP$$c10575$$tbiblio 001355197 905__ $$uadmin 001355197 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1355197$$pGLOBAL_SET 001355197 910__ $$aLR 2014-06-10 001355197 944__ $$a2403329 001355197 945__ $$aUnited States 001355197 950__ $$aDVDF; FLON; VSTR; ENVV; VASS$$cVSTR-ST; FLON-BF; DVDF-ST; ENVV-V1; FLON-14; VAST-BF 001355197 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001355197 980__ $$aBIB 001355197 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001355197 983__ $$aOnline
