520    "The authors warn governments, societies and humanity 
       about the future of Amazonia. It is dying. Who will save 
       Amazonia? The world is at war with covid-19, climate 
       change and social inequality. This book shows that 
       Amazonia is a key entity in the victory of humanity 
       against these three 'plagues' of modernity. A worldwide 
       mobilization is needed to stop its cultural and ecological
       destruction. Its full submission to the market and to 
       predatory privatization contribute to this process that 
       has global impact. It is an open question as many diseases
       and pandemics could spread throughout the world as a 
       result of continued destruction of this incredibly 
       biodiverse region. It has about 163 indigenous peoples, 
       over 2000 rivers and 400 billion trees. It is important 
       for world food security, climate change mitigation and 
       bioindustry. This study puts the need its transformation 
       into the world heritage. Links, controversies and 
       challenges about Amazonia's sustainable development and 
       nature, territory, culture, environmental justice, 
       economics, work, bioeconomy, covid-19, climate change and 
       environmental protection are debated in the perspective 
       directed at improving quality of life of their native 
       populations. Its relations with Christian foundations are 
       also shown. Its importance for the humanity is analyzed in
       the sustainable perspective. It is also presented 
       denunciations on the destructive interventions made by the
       Brazil Governo on its peoples and biomes. This tragedy has
       been aggravated by the dispersion of the covid-19 in the 
       region. This book shows that Brazilian Amazonia's future 
       is an announced world tragedy. Who will save Amazonia? 
       According to Marcílio and Marilene the responsibility of 
       its sustainable protection is of us all"--|cProvided by
