About

This is a data visualization project based on the latest announced deforestation rate on the Brazilian Amazon Forest. The intention is to bring that rate closer to us by comparing it to our own cities and neighborhoods.

Data Source

The latest announcement from INPE maps 2,254.8 km2 of deforested land in the month of July 2019. We are currently using that data point for our calculations.
