An ipe (lapacho) tree is seen in this aerial view of the Amazon rainforest near Novo
An ipe (lapacho) tree is seen in this aerial view of the Amazon rainforest near the city of Novo Progresso, Para State, September 24, 2013. The Amazon rainforest is being eaten away at by deforestation, much of which takes place as areas are burnt by large fires to clear land for agriculture. Initial data from Brazils space agency suggests that destruction of the vast rainforest - the largest in the world - spiked by more than a third over the past year, wiping out an area more than twice the size of the city of Los Angeles. If the figures are borne out by follow-up data, they would confirm fears of scientists and environmental activists who warn that farming, mining and Amazon infrastructure projects, coupled with changes to Brazils long-standing environmental policies, are reversing progress made against deforestation. Environmental issues will be under the spotlight as a United Nations Climate Change Conference opens in Warsaw, Poland, on November 11. Picture taken on September 24, 2013.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures the breathtaking beauty of the Amazon rainforest near Novo Progresso, Para State. Standing tall and majestic amidst a sea of green is an ipe (lapacho) tree, its vibrant colors contrasting against the lush foliage surrounding it. However, this serene image belies a harsh reality - the Amazon rainforest is under threat from rampant deforestation. Large fires burn across vast areas to clear land for agriculture, contributing to the destruction of this invaluable ecosystem. Recent data from Brazil's space agency reveals that deforestation has spiked by over a third in just one year, obliterating an area twice the size of Los Angeles. These alarming figures confirm scientists' and environmental activists' worst fears about farming, mining, infrastructure projects, and changes in Brazil's environmental policies reversing progress made against deforestation. As global attention turns towards environmental issues at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Warsaw, Poland, starting on November 11th, this photograph serves as a stark reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve our natural world. The Amazon rainforest plays a crucial role in mitigating climate change by absorbing vast amounts of carbon dioxide and providing habitat for countless species. Through images like these captured by Nacho Doce for Reuters Images on September 24th, 2013 - we are compelled to confront the urgent need for action before paradise turns into an inferno.
