Abstract
Abstract In Brazil, the Amazon’s role in regulating the Earth’s climate, resulting from the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere into biomass, it is threatened by high rates of deforestation. The impact of a REDD+ Project for forest conservation in the Rio Preto- Jacundá RESEX in Rondônia - RO was evaluated from the comparative analysis between deforestation that occurred before (2004-2012) and after the Project (2012-2020), on a local and regional scale (RO) based on data provided by the Amazon Deforestation Calculation Program (PRODES). The results showed that, from 2015 onwards there is a greater deforestation trend in the RESEX than in the state of RO and that, between 2016 and 2019, all deforestation occurred inside the Project limits. It was concluded that this REDD+ Project without proper regulation and government support has not been able to help to stop deforestation and, consequently, combat the urgent climate crisis that we face.
