During the spring and summer of 2020, I worked with Erika Berenguer, a senior researcher and ecologist at Oxford University, and other researchers on these animations to dispel myths about the Amazon fires. Deborah Frances-White of the Guilty Feminist Podcast kindly narrated the English versions of these videos.

Not all fires are the same, not even those in the Amazon. For each fire type there is a different cause, creating different environmental and social impacts, thus requiring different solutions. In this trilogy we present the causes, the impacts and the solutions for fires in the Amazon.

All the videos were produced by scientists, bringing the latest scientific evidence about Amazonian fires. I worked closely with them throughout the creative process to include their scientific expertise in the design and animation.

The videos are also available to watch in Portuguese and French on the RAS Network YouTube channel.

• The first video explains the different types fire in the Amazon.
• The second is about the impacts of the fires.
• The third video proposes solutions to prevent fires and save the Amazon.
