On 8 November 2024 The Associated Press reported: Forest loss in Brazil's Amazon dropped by 30.6 percent compared to the previous year, officials said Wednesday [6 November], the lowest level of destruction in nine years. ...Deforestation in Brazil's vast savannah, known as the Cerrado, decreased by 25.7 percent, the first decline in five years. Global Good News service views this news as a sign of rising positivity in the field of science, documenting the growth of life-supporting, evolutionary trends.
