The unprecedented drought that the Amazon experienced last year caused the lowest river levels to be recorded in 120 years. A study in which Brazilian scientists participated found that these types of extreme events can occur up to once every 15 years if the Earth's temperature continues to rise.

This is a wake-up call for the countries that are part of the Amazon to prepare for a future that is increasingly less uncertain and, on the other hand, gives us clues that what we will experience will indeed be more extreme.
