'Indigenous people are murdered, and the killers go unpunished,' say organizations in solidarity with Brazil's Guarani Kaiowá people
The document was issued after the murder of a young Indigenous man in Mato Grosso do Sul state
Tumblr media
Following the murder of a young Indigenous man on Wednesday morning (18) in the municipality of Antônio João in Mato Grosso do Sul state, organizations published a note in solidarity with the Guarani Kaiowá, expressing their rejection of violence against Indigenous people. Neri Guarani Kaiowa, 22, was shot in the head in a reclaimed area during an action by the Mato Grosso do Sul Military Police.  
The attacks began on Thursday (12) when the Indigenous people reclaimed the Barra farm, which overlaps with the Nhanderu Marangatu Indigenous Land (TI, in Portuguese). The Military Police, who were protecting the property, attacked them. They shot three people, and one was hospitalized. 
In Douradina, around 180 kilometers from Antônio João, the Guarani Kaiowá also face violence as they reclaim their ancestral territory of Panambi Lagoa-Rica.  
“We, the signatories of this note, demand that the authorities of the Brazilian state, government, and judiciary prioritize the protection of Indigenous communities to avoid further bloodshed on this land,” the note stresses. The document questions the actions of the justice system, which “cannot remain silent in an unequal battle where only Indigenous people are murdered, while the perpetrators and masterminds go unpunished.”

International Swifties, we need your help with a serious matter:
Tonight there was an interview on Fantástico (a Brazilian newspaper) with the relatives of Ana Benevides, who passed away last Friday (17). Ana’s mother reported that she needs help to transport Ana’s body to Mato Grosso do Sul, because he is still in Rio de Janeiro (in another city/state). This transportation costs a high price, so we need to move around to be able to help them with this. We have already achieved so many things that seemed to be impossible, so we can achieve that too.
We still don’t have any kitty information to share with you, but we can move by going up a tag and DEMANDING @t4f to do something about it.
To help us, please comment “JUSTIÇA POR ANA BENEVIDES” and tag @taylornation13 and @t4f

Cattle rancher leaves animals to die in Brazil
A heart-breaking scene. Fishermen came across cattle languishing on the banks of a river in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul in Brazil as the rancher had abandoned them and they headed toward the water to look for food. Many of them died as they got stuck in the mud and were too weak to get back up. The rancher has been arrested and charged with animal cruelty. These appaling scenes of extreme suffering illustrate how animal exploiters treat living beings as things and discard them as trash when the going gets rough. Animal agriculture is a depravity.

they killed that snake i fucking hate this so much 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Scientists are mourning the loss of the world's largest snake named 'Ana Julia' after hearing it was 'shot dead by hunters' on Sunday in Brazil's Amazon Rainforest. A team of 15 international biologists discovered the Northern Green Anaconda in February and determined it was a new species based on a 5.5 percent difference in its DNA compared to other anacondas. Ana Julie's 26-foot-long lifeless body was found in the Formoso River in the rural area of Bonito in southern Brazil's Mato Grosso do Sul State. A Dutch researcher who helped discover the snake shared he was 'sad and angry' after hearing the news and called the anaconda's killers 'sick.'

Pain relief might grow on trees after all. In a collaborative effort spanning multiple Brazilian universities, researchers have found compelling evidence that leaves from the sugar apple tree — traditionally used in folk medicine — contain anti-arthritic powerful compounds that fight both pain and inflammation.
Sugar apple, known in Brazil as “fruta-do-conde” or “pinha,” has long been valued for its sweet fruit. However, its leaves (Annona squamosa) have drawn scientific interest for their potential therapeutic properties, particularly in treating pain and inflammation.
Published in the journal Pharmaceuticals, the study was conducted by teams from the Federal University of Grande Dourados, Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul, State University of Campinas (UNICAMP), and São Paulo State University.
Modern pain management often relies heavily on two classes of drugs: opioids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). While effective, both come with significant drawbacks. Opioids carry risks of dependence and addiction, while long-term NSAID use can lead to ulcers and cardiovascular problems. These limitations drive the ongoing search for safer alternatives.
The research team’s approach was methodical. They created a methanolic extract (EMAS) from dried sugar apple leaves using methanol as a solvent, and also isolated a specific compound called palmatine, which would prove crucial to their findings.
In several experiments, both EMAS and palmatine demonstrated significant ability to reduce inflammation and pain. When tested against pleurisy (inflammation of the lung lining), the higher doses proved particularly effective, with EMAS reducing inflammatory cell migration by up to 81% and palmatine by up to 75%.

Dyckia beateae
Dyckia is a genus of terrestrial bromeliads (that is, they grow in the ground or on rocks, not in tree-tops like many other bromeliads), and they come from southern Brasil and southward into Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina. Up to now, D. beateae has been a rare species in cultivation, and we only acquired it a few years ago. It has grown enthusiastically, and it makes multiple tall stalks with orange flowers in summer. Each flower is clasped by chubby reddish sepals, and these are speckled with flaky white scales (seen also on the flower stalk). D. beateae comes from the state of Mato Grosso in west-central Brasil.

Friday is Indigenous Peoples Day in Brazil, and tribal leaders and activists used the occasion to criticize the left-wing government of Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva for falling short on promises to safeguard native land rights.
On Thursday, the Brazilian government announced the demarcation of Aldeia Velha, land of the Pataxó people, in the northeastern state of Bahia, as well as the territory of the Karajá people in Cacique Fontoura, Mato Grosso.
"Since the beginning of the current government, 10 areas have been regularized out of a total of 14 routed for approval," the government said in a statement. "The act reaffirms the focus of the federal government on the protection and respect of Indigenous peoples."
However, Indigenous peoples were anticipating the demarcation of six new territories. Lula acknowledged their disappointment.
"I know you are apprehensive and expected the demarcation of six Indigenous lands. But now we only announce two. And I'm being real with you," he said.
"Some of this missing land is occupied either by farmers or peasants," the president explained. "We cannot arrive without giving these people an alternative. Some governors asked for time to resolve, in a negotiated manner, the eviction of these territories so that we can demarcate them."
"The definition of these lands is already ready. What we do not want is to promise you today, and tomorrow you read in the newspaper, that a contrary decision was made," Lula added. "The frustration would be greater."
But the frustration was already there—and growing.
"This is revolting for us Indigenous peoples to have had so much faith in the government's commitments to our rights and the demarcation of our territories," Alessandra Korap Munduruku, a member of the Munduruku people and a 2023 winner of the prestigious Goldman Environmental Prize, told Amazon Watch in a statement published Friday.
"We hear all of these discussions about environmental and climate protection, but without support for Indigenous peoples on the front lines, suffering serious attacks and threats. Lula cannot speak about fighting climate change without fulfilling his duty to demarcate our lands," she added.

Amazonas, Mato Grosso do Sul, and Mato Grosso Break Records of Carbon Emissions from Fires
Fires in the Amazon and Pantanal bring Brazilian states to a historic level, shows Copernicus Observatory
Tumblr media
Favored by intense drought, the increase in forest fires in the Pantanal and Amazon has caused carbon emissions in these regions to soar in recent months, according to a new survey by the Copernicus Observatory, part of the European Union.
Even with data only up to September 3, the state of Amazonas has already broken the annual record for emissions from fires in the historical series, which began in 2003, with 23.2 megatons of carbon. The values of the last eight months have already surpassed the emissions of the previous record holder, 2022, which had 22.7 megatons. In the Pantanal, the states of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul have already exceeded emissions recorded for the period from January to early September over the previous 21 years.
The Bolivian Pantanal has also been affected by fires. With three months remaining in the year, emissions related to forest fires in Bolivia have already made 2024 set the annual record in the Copernicus records.

Smoke Fills South American Skies
Intense fires burning in several South American countries draped large swaths of smoke across the continent throughout August and early September 2024. In Brazil and Bolivia, fire activity reached levels not seen since 2010 as a prolonged drought parched landscapes in both countries.
From about 1 million miles (1.6 million kilometers) away from Earth, NASA’s EPIC (Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera) imager on the DSCOVR (Deep Space Climate Observatory) satellite captured this view of smoke billowing from the blazes on September 3, 2024.
Smoke from fires in Brazil swept over the country’s capital city in mid-August and early September. For several days, São Paolo’s air was clouded with smog, and air quality was unhealthy for sensitive groups, according to AirNow. The smoke grounded flights and forced schools to close in the most populous city in Brazil, according to The Guardian.
The fire season in the southern Amazon, which generally ramps up in August and peaks in September and October, has been intense this year. According to the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS), a component of the European Union’s space program, emissions from fires have been exceptionally high in Bolivia and the Brazilian states of Amazonas and Mato Grosso do Sul.
CAMS estimates near-real-time wildfire emissions using its Global Fire Assimilation System (GFAS), which aggregates observations made by the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) sensors on NASA’s Aqua and Terra satellites. Compared to the previous 21 years, these areas have registered their highest year-to-date total emissions, at 44, 22, and 13 million metric tons of carbon, respectively.
The Pantanal region—which straddles the Brazil-Bolivia border and is home to one of the world’s largest tropical wetlands—has been especially hard hit in 2024. Early and intense blazes spread over the wetlands in late May and continued into August. According to Brazil’s National Institute for Space Research (INPE), there were a record number of fire detections in the biome in June 2024, and fires have continued to burn at high levels since.

The false-color image above, acquired by the OLI (Operational Land Imager) on Landsat 8, shows fires near Ascensión de Guarayos, in the Bolivian state of Santa Cruz. The false-color image emphasizes the burn areas (brown) from several fires on September 3, 2024. Unburned vegetation is green. Near- and short-wave infrared bands help penetrate some of the smoke to reveal hot areas associated with active fires, which appear orange.
Through September 6, blazes tore through more than 10 million hectares of Bolivia, or roughly 9 percent of the country’s total area. Out of the 42 million metric tons of carbon emitted in Bolivia between May and August, 33 million metric tons came from fires in the state of Santa Cruz, according to Mark Parrington, CAMS senior scientist with the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF).
Large parts of South America have seen significant rainfall deficits over the past three months. According to ECMWF, this has led to “exceptional drought” (the highest drought ranking) over much of the central and northern parts of the continent. Brazil’s Natural Disaster Monitoring and Alerts Center noted on September 5 that shifted rainfall patterns from El Niño, increased temperatures from climate change, and reduced humidity from deforestation have all contributed to the drought.
