BE A PART OF OUR MISSION


OUR MAIN OBJECTIVE IS THE PROTECTION OF THE AMAZON RAINFOREST

Our primary goal is the protection of the native forests of the Amazon in Peru.
We want to keep the natural forests in their natural state, with the flora and
fauna that have developed over so many years of their existence. The native
forests, which we protect, have not yet had the intervention of man. Many places
offer wonderful discoveries of new species of pourable and non-pourable animals.
The richness of species and classes of medicinal plants, flowers, herbs, fruit
trees, timber trees are still waiting to be cataloged and classified.

Our mission to protect the nature of the forest areas that we assume lies in
avoiding the growing and often brutal deforestation. Only in this way can we
ensure that these natural machines, which are trees and the variety of species
of fauna, continue to produce the work of generating oxygen for humanity and the
animal kingdom. it is a positive contribution that avoids sudden and drastic
changes in the world climate. Only in this way can we retain the increasing,
constant and gradual speed of our planet’s warming. Until today it is known that
our planet has increased the temperature by 1.5 ° C and this has caused global
catastrophes such as forest fires, torrential rains, droughts, immunizations,
ice sliding from the north and south poles. Every day it is seen that the sea
water rises and the cities that are on its shores disappear.

The conservation of the forests that we protect also brings about actively
participating in the life of the beings that live within the forests as well as
the beings that live in their rivers, lagoons and streams. Within them there are
also communities not yet completely civilized that require orientation and
knowledge of integration in the civilized world.

THE DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCES OF AMAZON DEFORESTATION: DISEASE OUTBREAKS AND
NUTRITION-RELATED HEALTH RISKS


NEW RESEARCH REVEALS CONNECTIONS BETWEEN DEFORESTATION, DISEASE SPREAD, AND
NUTRITIONAL PROBLEMS

BY UWE LEHNFELD

[Satipo/Berlin, 03.03.24] In the Amazon rainforest, one of the most vital
ecosystems globally, increasing deforestation and the loss of the natural
environment trigger alarming chain reactions. Research results from scientists
at the environmental organization ACRENAP and PLANETLUNGS.ORG demonstrate that
the removal of trees leads to a dramatic rise in diseases, as natural defense
mechanisms, particularly the released “phytoncides”, are lost.

The threatening impacts range from the increase of diseases such as
Leishmaniasis to current cases of Dengue fever in Peru. Mosquitoes, once
regulating elements of the food web, become disease carriers when their natural
enemies are decimated by deforestation. The disruption of the ecological balance
favors the uncontrolled reproduction of mosquitoes, leading to epidemic surges.

Not only disease outbreaks are the issue; deforestation also affects the
forests’ ability to capture fine dust particles. One hectare of tropical forest
can absorb approximately 60 tons of dust and volatile organic matter annually.
The loss of this capability not only influences air quality but also increases
the risk of respiratory diseases. The Peruvian National Center for Epidemiology,
Prevention, and Disease Control (CDC) emphasizes a significant increase in
respiratory infections in the last five years correlated with deforestation.



The direct impacts on human health are concerning. Balanced nutrition and access
to high-quality drinking water are crucial for the normal functioning of the
human body and the strengthening of the immune system. Deforestation also
threatens the rich plant diversity used by indigenous people for traditional
medical treatments, endangering not only biodiversity but also the well-being of
local communities.

The impacts of climate change are also noticeable. Changes in temperature and
humidity affect the growth and yields of agricultural crops. Potatoes, coffee,
and oranges show significant declines, while diseases and pests increase.
Agricultural production, the main source of livelihood for many, diminishes,
leading to income losses and nutritional deficiencies. Especially vulnerable are
children under 3 years old and pregnant women, susceptible to nutrition-related
diseases like anemia.

Rising poverty, documented by “Pobreza monetaria” data and the number of poor,
reaches alarming levels. Experts advocate for a comprehensive adaptation
strategy that includes research, water resource management, and education.
Financial resources must be urgently provided to implement these measures at the
local level and protect the population from the devastating effects of
deforestation.

CLIMATE CHANGE – IS IT REAL?


Play Video about forest-fire-planetlungs-peru

When it comes to climate change, you have to distinguish between two things.
First, there is natural climate change, over which humans have no influence. It
is said that the last ice age ended about 10,000 years ago and that since then
the average temperatures on earth have risen steadily.

Erratic boulders, which are huge round cut pieces of stone, show that glaciers
transported them over hundreds of kilometers from the north to the south.
Terminal moraines show how far the ice age armor had advanced. Geology thus
leaves no doubt about these processes. The history of the earth shows constantly
changing warm and ice ages. This rhythm changes every 300,000 to 600,000 years
and therefore a long warm period should lie ahead of us.

This climate change cannot be influenced by us. But there is a second influence
on the climate, which can only be attributed to man. For about 100 years, since
the industrialization of the world and the resulting use of fossil fuels such as
oil, coal and natural gas, the average temperature of the earth has been rising
faster than it would without human influence.

This is clear: After all, there are more and more cars driving around the world,
there are more and more people in the world who want to be warm in winter and
burn oil and coal to do so, there is an ever-increasing demand for electricity
for households and for industry, for the generation of which a great deal of
coal and natural gas is still being burned. 



There are now eight billion people on earth, which represents an enormous
consumption mass. And they all want to live, drive a car, use a smartphone, eat,
sleep and live, and industry is striving to fulfill all the wishes of these
people.

These are the main causes of man-made climate change:

 * Fossil fuels
 * Deforestation
 * Increasing livestock production
 * Nitrogenous fertilizers
 * Fluorinated gases

This second major factor influencing global climate must be added to the first.
To natural global warming must be added the man-made rise in temperature.
However, because we are intelligent and because we want to preserve our world
for as long as possible, we are well advised to influence this second factor for
climate change, the way humans contribute to global warming, as much as
possible. We should be wise with the world’s resources, and we should address
each of these causes to our advantage.

Planetlungs Amazonas (planetlungs.org) wants to start at one place and is
committed to stopping the deforestation of the rainforest. There is a difference
between taking another 300,000 years for temperatures to rise and having them
rise immediately.

LOSS OF AMAZON FORESTS AFFECTS THE GULF STREAM AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
PROBLEM OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN EUROPE

PLANETLUNGS ORG (Germany), and the Peruvian organizations: ASSOCIATION FOR THE
DEVELOPMENT AND CONSERVATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES PERU – “ACRENAP”, the
INSTITUTE OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH OF TROPICAL PLANTS “IICPT”, and the consortium
of the BIOSPHERE RESERBA AVIRERI VRAEM “RBAV“, join forces to carry out actions
to mitigate the impacts of global warming and climate change in Germany and
Europe.
Climate is the description in terms of average values and variability of the
temperature, humidity, precipitation, wind, etc., of a locality or region, over
a relatively long period of time, such as 30 years, according to the World
Meteorological Organization. Likewise, climate is the result of a complex
interaction between the five components of the climate system: the atmosphere,
the biosphere, the hydrosphere, the cryosphere and the earth’s surface; which
maintain their own dynamics that generate variations in different time scales,
events such as El Niño/La Niña, which have durations of some years or events
such as glacial eras that occur in periods of thousands and millions of years
only eventually interrupted by natural causes, such as volcanic eruptions and
variations in solar emissions, or by human activity.

WHAT WE ACHIEVED

Planetlungs will work in cooperation with three scientific institutions:
ACRENAP, RBAV, INST. TROPISCHE PFLANZEN, these non-profit companies have
headquarters in Peru. We will be the representatives in the European community
and others to intensify the mutual work between South America and Europe,
especially in Germany.

Likewise, sufficient material has been obtained for the publication of a
scientifically based book called 

“Book of the Atlas of Rhopalocera of Peru” (1st edition)”, to be published in
the next months of 2023. This study is the result of research carried out over
the last 20 years by the team of national and international researchers from the
NGO ACRENAP in the Peruvian Amazon.

The book aims to identify species of diurnal butterflies from 6 families:
Hesperidae, Lycaenidae, Riodinidae, Papilionidae, Pieridae and Nymphalidae (from
10 subfamilies: Apaturinae, Limenitidinae, Charaxinae, Cyrestinae, Brassolinae,
Danainae, Heliconinae, Biblidinae, Nymphalinae and Satyrinae) . On the contrary,
it also includes photos of the stages of eggs, larvae, pupae and imagoes
(females, males and wings) of all the species identified as diurnal pollinators
of plants and crops in the Amazon rainforest.

This book presents 569 species of diurnal butterflies from the Peruvian Amazon
jungle (100 to 2,500 masl) and their 297 species of host plants (larval stage).
