                      insight, and for the link. It is very important. I
                      believe I found the English version: <a href="https://theintercept.com/2019/09/20/amazon-brazil-army-bolsanaro/" target="_blank">https://theintercept.com/2019/09/20/amazon-brazil-army-bolsanaro/</a></div>
                    <div><br>
                    </div>
                    <div>It does seem like it all starts with the roads.
                      The roads introduce new species in the area as
                      they get made, possibilities for logging come
                      about. New edge effects are created and
                      microclimates emerge that allow for a greater
                      chance of fires, ultimately directing the
                      landscape away from rainforest and toward savannah
                      where the plantationocene can take hold --
                      radically depleting species diversity and
                      introducing new species that also exhaust the soil
                      (cattle deplete nutrients in the pastures). The
                      roads are resource frontiers, and also involve the
                      process of &#39;making cheap&#39; -- a process Jason Moore
                      describes (and who is referenced by Escher in
                      another thread). Perhaps we can pick up the
                      epistemological question again in the future --
                      the question of distance, speed, and totalizing
                      views (yes, creating the &#39;we&#39; vision).<br>
                    </div>
                    <div><br>
                    </div>
                    <div>On the ground, I am so interested in the
                      foreign species that travel along these roads --
                      how invasive plant species *sometimes* give big ag
                      grief and can often remediate the landscape,
                      reintroducing nutrients and re texturing the soil,
                      sometimes so the more native species can move back
                      in (Oliver has many examples of this happening in
                      North America) . I&#39;d love to learn what plants
                      could do such things along these new roads in
                      Brazil. Also interested in species that help fight
                      big ag in alliance with humans. In Argentina for
                      example anti gmo activists throw amaranth into
                      fields (a superweed, a spinach, a grain): PDF: <a href="https://read.dukeupress.edu/environmental-humanities/article-pdf/9/2/204/517303/204beilin.pdf" target="_blank">https://read.dukeupress.edu/environmental-humanities/article-pdf/9/2/204/517303/204beilin.pdf</a>

                              a colleague  through Whats Up, with a link
                              to The Intercept ,where a young brazilian
                              journalist, from their crew, grabbed some
                              information about the plans that the
                              Govern - and particularly the Army - have
                              been preparing concerning Amazon area. The
                              militaries basically reedited an ancient
                              doctrine about security on the Amazon
                              frontier. Among several conspiration
                              theories involving the construction of an
                              independent country for Yanomoanis in
                              collaboration with Venezuela, and other
                              klind of misconception there is an
                              intention to get around ancient plans of
                              roads construction in the region. There is
                              already a road that connects Cuiabá (in
                              the middle of the country) to Santarem. Up
                              to this place, there begins the region
                              known as Calha Norte, which was involved
                              in disputes and projects since Military
                              Dictatorship in the 70s and 80s. It gave
                              raise to a rumorous situation that
                              involved, in the past, some militaires and
                              empresarios. Well, here they come again,
                              projecting the occupation of Indigenous
                              areas with mining and people brought from
                              other parts of the country, with the aim
                              to avoid a supposed &quot;invasion&quot; of Chinese
                              immigrants that also supposedly have benn
                              growing in Suriname. Several detais,
                              including a presentation with maps and
                              some audio registering the meetings done
                              in the state of Pará, were disclosed by
                              Intercept. The material is astonishing
                              even to those of us who were born and in
                              Brazil and to all that live here.
                              <div>Now I  arrive to the important point
                                Margaretha sustained in her
                                commentaries. The roads we see in the
                                map, part of it, probably represent
                                these efforts to open ways up to North
                                Amazon, a place, as an specialst heard
                                by Intercept says, so isolated that does
                                not demand concerns on fronteer
                                security. There is indeed a plan to
                                occupy Amazon with roads and it is
                                really important for some <i>tactical</i>
                                reasons: first, because it increases
                                petrol and cars lobby, second because it
                                was one of the main politics of
                                Dictatorship in the 70s, through the
                                absurd project of TransAmazonica road.
                                Nowaday it seems to be a reedition of
                                ancient positions susteinad by  some
                                falcons from the Army.</div>
                              <div>If, from one side, says Margaretha,
                                perhaps the world get information that
                                constructs a &quot;we vision&quot; (from the
                                standpoint of the ones who did not
                                suffer colonization directly - &quot;seeing
                                from afar&quot;) , on the other there is an
                                analogous situation concerning people
                                that live in  in  southwest or south
                                parts of the Country, which means also
                                &quot;seeing from afar&quot;. Nevertheless, the
                                same network has been making it possible
                                to have fast access to such an
                                information as it was disclosed by
                                journalist Tatiana Dias through
                                Intercept today. Intercept uses the same
                                Network that can either reinforce
                                distances, either eliminate them. To use
                                a cliché, information is a crucial tool
                                to this very moment. </div>

                                  <div>Fabi thank you for your posts so
                                    full of energy and for a vision of
                                    agroecology. I share your
                                    inspiration for this set of
                                    cultivation practices, and worry
                                    deeply about the ways it can be
                                    taken up by capital.... But perhaps
                                    as you suggest it is a way out, a
                                    tear on the edges of modernity
                                    (Eduardo Gudynas argues the way out
                                    of modernity will be determined by
                                    Latin America....)</div>

                                  </div>
                                  <div>I have another question for you
                                    Fabi and for Dan. One of the
                                    striking things about the arial
                                    images of the Amazon, are the
                                    fishbone patterns we see as roads
                                    get developed. We can actually see
                                    the metabolic pathways of capitalism
                                    in these patterns. But I&#39;m wondering
                                    about the ways &#39;we&#39; see the Amazon
                                    from afar -- the technologies we
                                    use, and how they themselves are
                                    implicated in colonial histories and
                                    colonial futures that have us
                                    leaving earth -- could you comment.
                                    How do you use these mapping and
                                    satellite technologies in your own
                                    practice?</div>
