Renato Cordeiro, 57, harvests rubber from a hevea tree (Hevea brasiliensis) near his home on the Anajas riverbank, in the municipality of Anajas, contained in the Marajo Archipelago Environmental Protection Area, Para state, Brazil on December 7, 2024. The recent revival of the rubber tapper trade in this impoverished northern Brazilian region has reignited a sustainable economy and provided jobs for families who once thrived during the Amazonian rubber boom, which collapsed in the late 20th century.
