“Brazil decreed a new 3.8 million acre (1.5M hectare) Indian reservation Friday in the heart of the Amazon rainforest’s logging frontier. The land had been sought by the Kayapo Indians in their ancestral territory since 1994. Studies show that Indian reservations tend to be the best preserved areas of the rainforest.” (Seattle Times has the AP Story)
Hmmm… shouldn’t the headline be “Brazil RETURNS 3.8M acres”, rather than “gives”?
