The Amazon rainforest has been given fresh hope after British scientists found it is much more resilient than previously feared. It constitutes more than half of the planet's remaining rainforest, with its 2.4 million square miles the most species rich tract of land. Storing about half of the global tropical forest carbon, large losses could make climate change worse. Logging can leave it fragmented and punch holes in the canopy, drying out the vegetation below. This, combined with the effects...
