Absolutely great to have a transparent prediction of what to expect next year. But, how valid are the predictions, have they proved themselves already. And how do they relate to the governmental records (if available). Answers to these questions could convince Brazilian government, with some help of pressure groups, to adopt the system and support taking preventive measures in time. Hope it will contribute to further reduction of deforestation. Moos

There will be an update coming out next week. This will provide more details on the accuracy of the system and the latest findings.
