This must be the hardest way to investigate why the trees of the Amazon so important climbing right up into them, get down on the ground.

A scientist, Erica Berenger, is asking for samples of the leads.

Adverbs of manner

Erica has studied the same batch of trees for 10 years now, measuring exactly how they're growing and how they affect the climate.

This matters to the whole world because of the sheer size of this forest.

We've used graphics to show how the billions of leaves a breathing in carbon dioxide, a gas which is heating up the planet as human activity keeps adding Maur on Mork carbon dioxide to the air.

Magnificent trees like this pull a lot of it in, but chop it down and burn it on a ll.

The carbon that's been stored inside over the many years is suddenly released back to the atmosphere, which, of course, increases the speed of global warming.

In the last few months, the rate of deforestation here has suddenly increased.

The new government of Brazil wants to encourage development, So Erica's research is all the more urgent in this lab.

She studies the leaves collected from the forest to work out how much carbon the Amazon holes.

It's the equivalent of America burning fossil fuels for nearly a century, we're never gonna be able to build an Amazon.

So once it's going to just go on, all that's left where Forest once stood, a stark reminder of what's vanishing and of consequences for the rest of the world.
