A Brazilian research institute says about 11,600 square kilometers of the Amazon rainforest have been lost in one year.
                
Roughly two-thirds of the Amazon, the world&#039;s largest rainforest, is located in Brazil.
                
The country&#039;s National Institute for Space Research on Wednesday said an estimated 11,568 square kilometers of rainforest were destroyed from August 2021 to July 2022 by fires and illegal clear-cutting.
                
The figure is down some 11 percent from a year ago, but still marks an annual loss of more than 10,000 square kilometers for the fourth year in a row.
                
Destruction of the rainforest is said to have accelerated under President Jair Bolsonaro, who actively supports development of the Amazon.
                
Western governments and environmental activists have blamed Bolsonaro for hastening global warming.
                
His successor Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who is set to take office in January, has vowed to protect the Amazon rainforest.
                
He has suggested holding the UN climate change conference in 2025, in the Amazon.
