Did You Know?

The Atlantic Forest occupies 12% of Brazilian territory and is where the majority of the Brazilian population resides.

It holds the largest biodiversity in the world with a unique variety of 450 species of different trees per hectare.

The Romantic concept of a Tropical Paradise for the Europeans in awe of its abundance of exotic fauna and flora goes back to the 16th century.

Alas it is not well known the fact that this wondrous biodiversity is endangered.

Let's work together to preserve it.
