Amazonia Live is Rock in Rio’s social-environmental project. The biggest music festival in the world understands a lot about making noise, and has teamed up with partners to carry out this project. Together with Conservation International – Brazil, Funbio and the Socio-environmental Institute (ISA), Amazonia Live aims to be a communication platform on the nature that restores forests. In its launching in April 2016, Rock in Rio engaged to restore 1 million trees in the headwaters of the Xingu River, as well as the CI-Brasil match, which pledged to restore another one million trees in the same region. Funbio has been operating the financial resources of the project and ISA executes in the field the restoration actions in the Xingu. The Ministry of the Environment, through its Secretary of Biodiversity and Forests, also joined the project in 2016, assuming the commitment to contribute to the recovery of areas in the Amazon Rainforest with another million trees in protected areas in the Amazonian biome. So far, we have secured more than 3 million trees through these partnerships and together we will go much further. Other contributions, such as donations from the audience during Rock in Rio 2017 ticket sales also guaranteed thousands of trees, totaling an area of 1,600 hectares in the Amazon rainforest. The initiative works with a proportion that the mix of recovery techniques – no-tillage, seed sowing, enrichment, conduction or favoring of natural regeneration and others – results in an average density of 2,500 trees per hectare. These values are supported by monitoring areas already restored by the ISA and available literature. The Amazon Sustainable Landscapes Project is Amazonia Live’s newest partnership, promoting a broad scale restoration commitment – going from 1 million to 70 million trees – and with this, it will be possible to reach the landmark of 73 million trees to be restored in the Amazon Rainforest in the next few years. It is the largest forestry restoration project in the region. Learn more here.
