'We need radical change' to protect the Amazon - Conservationist Paul Rosolie discusses the importance of the Amazon and how current generations can still save it.

Al-Jazeera’s interview with conservationist Paul Rosolie regarding the Amazon fires, global deforestation, and how threats to indigenous peoples and their lands are just a harbinger for what awaits us all should we fail to act.

Says Rosolie, “We don't have that relationship with natural systems whereas [indigenous] people, their sacred places - their temple, their church, their mosque - is the forest. Their medicines come from the forest, their food comes from - the monkeys, the trees, the rivers - so as these systems are depleted, we're actually losing indigenous cultures, we're losing entire languages as these people are pushed out of their lands and as their ability to make a living is destroyed...they know what's affecting them is soon going to affect the [planet].”
