Progress vs. nature 照片檔

The unfair battle between "progress" and nature/preservation usually ends up with new roads, farms, or other activities taking the place of the lush amazon rainforest. In order to bypass the city centre of Porto Velho to reach a new logistics region along the banks of the Madeira river, a new road has started to be built. It is not yet paved, but the road has been made, and is already being used. It is part of the Expresso Porto road that intends to take thousands of trucks a year out of the city centre.
