1 Climatic and hydrological consequences of the large scale land use changes due to bio-fuel and soy bean production in tropical and subtropical South America Jose A. Marengo, Jean Ometto, Carlos A. Nobre Earth System Science Center/National Institute for Space Research São Paulo, Brazil
2 Facts Climate change in Brazil, impacts, vulnerability (land use changes and greenhouse gases emissions) Future climate change scenarios and the Amazon, due to increase in greenhouse gases concentration and land use changes Most important deforestation factor is cattle ranching Adaptation and mitigation alternatives: REDD, environmental services, biofuel, agrobussines Food security vs conservation
3 Brazilian agriculture The miracle of the cerrado Brazil has revolutionised its own farms. Can it do the same for others? Aug 26th 2010 CREMAQ, PIAUÍ
4 Brazil has more spare farmland than any other country. The FAO puts its total potential arable land at over 400m hectares; only 50m is being used. It is often accused of levelling the rainforest to create its farms, but hardly any of this new land lies in Amazonia; most is cerrado.
5 Food Systems-Food Security A food-secure future for those most vulnerable to environmental stress How will global environmental change (GEC) affect the vulnerability of food systems in different regions? How can we adapt food systems to cope with GEC and improve food security? How will the various adaptation options feed back on environmental and socioeconomic conditions? ESSP is a joint initiative of

List of pre conditions: Land with declividade higher than 12% Areas with native vegetation Amazon and Pantanal Conservation areas Indian reservation Others i.e. Reforestation; urban areas Project underdevelopment by Embrapa and Brazilian Government.

17 If the prime object of biofuels is mitigation of CO 2 -driven global warming, in the short term (30 years or so) it is better to focus on increasing the efficiency of fossil fuel use Conversion of large areas of land to biofuel crops may place additional strains on the environment Righelato and Spracklen, Science 17.Aug.2007
18 Still work to be done Development of future climate change scenarios due the increase in greenhouse gases concentration and land use changes (agriculture, urbanization) Assessment of impacts of climate change in food security and agroindustry Assessment of economical aspects of land use change in cattle ranching and agroinstry in the context value of ecosystem services and metigation options (REDD, CDM)
