The Amazon in Times of War - An Interview with Marcos Colón

Today we have a special interview episode with Marcos Colón about his new book The Amazon in Times of War.

The book is a collection of essays which detail Marcos' work in the Amazon rainforest, and chronicle the threats which the region, its people, and its non-human inhabitants face.

In the interview we talk about how Brazil's recent political history, the pandemic, its colonial legacy, and how popular and scientific conceptions have impacted the Amazon and its prospects for the future.
