Caatinga, a mata branca.
Saí recentemente para ver como está a represa que construíram para o abastecimento de água de dois assentamentos do INCRA, onde morei quando criança. Aproveitei e fotografei um pouco.

Climate change could drive mammal extinction in Brazil’s Caatinga, study warns

According to a new study, 91.6% of terrestrial mammal communities in the Caatinga will lose species by 2060, with 87% of them being deprived of their habitats if the temperature in the region increases by at least 2°C
In a previous study, the same researchers had warned that 99% of plant communities in the Caatinga will lose species by 2060

This is a major step forward. Still, that dry woodlands and savannas are not in is hugely problematic - places like #Cerrado, #Chaco, #Caatinga (to name just a few) harbor astonishing biodiversity, yet are disappearing in front of our eyes.
