In my understanding, there is something of the type ‘factious declarations’:  "deforestation in the Amazon is diminishing".

Believed it, in a sequence of 10 news, for example, the deforestation would have been reduced to zero.

In August 2018, the SAD [in Portughese, deforestation alarm system] detected 545 square kilometres of deforestation in the Legal Amazon, with an increase of 199 compared to August of 2017, when deforestation totaled 182 square kilometers.
In August 2018, deforestation occurred in Pará (37), Mato Grosso (20), Amazonas (19), Rondônia (16), Acre (7), Roraima  (1) and Tocantins (1). Degraded forests in Legal Amazon totaled 118 square kilometers in August 2018, showing a reduction of 70 compared to August of 2017, when the forest degradation detected totaled 392 square kilometers. In August 2018 the degradation was detected in the States of Mato Grosso (89), Pará (10) and Rondônia (1).

Geography of Deforestation

In August 2018, the majority (55) of deforestation occurred in private areas or under various stages of possession. The remainder of the deforestation was registered in the agrarian reform Settlements (23), protected areas (18) and indigenous lands (4).
