The last of the present series. Last year an area of forest the size of Wales and Northern Ireland was destroyed in the Amazon basin alone, taking with it thousands of animals and plants that could help science and medicine but have never even been classified. The lives of the remaining Indian tribes are also threatened.
Sting, Chief Raoni and hospital patients at the Royal Marsden are all caught up in this most urgent environmental question.
