I wouldn't be surprised if Brazil treats the rain forests like a commodity and negotiates with other nations to not cut them down for subsidization of lost revenue.
It's Brazil's world as well and I get they need the benefit of the rain forests just like anyone else. I just see an economic opportunity for Brazil for stopping deforestation.
