1. Low-carbon growth in Brazil? Gilberto Câmara National Institute for Space Research

2. ~230 scenes Landsat/year Yearly detailed estimates of clear-cut areas PRODES: Clear-cut deforestation mapping

3. 15-day alerts of newly deforested large areas DETER: Real -time Deforestation Monitoring

4. International credibility helps… TerraAmazon “Today, Brazil’s monitoring system is the envy of the world. INPE has its own remote sensing satellite, a joint effort with China, that allows it to publish yearly totals of deforested land that scientists regard as reliable.”

5. Transparency builds governance

6. 500.000 registrations 46 million protests

7. Myth 1: The impact of deforestation Deforestation is responsible for 20% of global carbon emissions (Sir David King) How does he know?

8. Myth 1: The impact of deforestation Brazil (1990s): 22.000 km 2 average - about 8% of CO2 emissions Brazil (2005-2010 est): 12.000 km 2 - about 5% of CO2 emissions

9. Myth 2: High cost of avoiding deforestation Avoided deforestation costs 30 € per tCO 2 Does it really?

10. Myth 2: The high cost of avoiding deforestation 50.000 km 2 of avoided deforestation from 2005-2008 How much did it cost?

11. Myth 2: High cost of avoiding deforestation cost of monitoring and enforcement (US$ 100 M-year) Brazil grew on 2005- 2008 at 3.5% average

12. Myth 2: High cost of avoiding deforestation source: Imazon graphics: Mongabay Avoiding deforestation in Amazonia has a negative cost

13. Myth 3: REDD is necessary and beneficial Money to whom? migrant workers? big farmers? I need my SUV

14. REDD may induce leakages: counterproductive ALAP BR 319 Estradas pavimentadas em 2010 Estradas não pavimentadas Rios principais 0.0-0.50 Less: 0.00.10 More: Differences: Protection areas Sustainable areas

15. Myth 4: Developed countries are willing to do technology transfer E2V CCD deviceCBERS-3 satellite “E2V will no longer sell CCDs to Brazil because we are committed to ITAR regime” (2008)

16. Achieving targets = good governance + market incentives Action Item 2: Brazil´s targets for deforestation

17. Action Item 2: Biofuels need fair markets

18. Action Item 3: Markets have a positive rôle

19. Open Globes OpenForestMap WikiForest Scientists, Citizens, Markets National, int´l agencies Angola Congo DR Action Item 4: Global Forest Information System

20. Data: INPE´s vision for the future A constellation of satellites and sensors will provide free earth observation data for all countries on Earth

21. CBERS as a global satellite CBERS ground stations will cover most of the Earth’s land mass between 30 0 N and 30 0 S

22. “A few satellites can cover the entire globe, but there needs to be a system in place to ensure their images are readily available to everyone who needs them. Brazil has set an important precedent by making its Earth-observation data available, and the rest of the world should follow suit.”
