These people reportedly paint themselves red, live in huts, and arm themselves with bows and arrows. Digitally-enhanced photos have since been released and have added a peculiar twist to the story.
Uncontacted Human Tribe Sighted in Amazon
Anthropologists have discovered an "uncontacted tribe" living in Brazil deep within the Amazon. Aerial photos show red-painted people, living in huts, and ready to defend themselves with bows and arrows. If you think you're out of touch with world events, think again.
Eco Paradox: Clean Air Bad for Rain Forest?
A new study claims that clean air may actually be worsening the drought in the Amazon rainforest — a region whose well being impacts the entire world's climate.
The scientists found that sun-reflective sulfate aerosols, released by coal-burning power plants, bounce light back to the sun, preventing it from hitting the Earth. Add a bunch of scientific mumbo-jumbo, and eventually the buffering impact of a concentrated amount of sulfates from the 1970s and 80s led to more rain in the Amazon.
