Billions of years in the future the Sun will collapse into a “white dwarf” and all known life depending upon it will cease to exist. But even before that happens, the Sun will swell to over 200 times its normal size during a “red giant phase” and engulf the Earth.

Picture a field of wheat under a cloudless vault, golden stalks rippling against dry gusts. As the mercury of a nearby thermometer climbs tick after tick, the air sucks up what little moisture still skulks in the soil and the plants, leaving them bone dry.

For decades, wounds have surfaced in the Peruvian Amazon where the Rio Inambari merges with the Rio Madre de Dios, carving thick gashes into ancient tree stands. These almost lunar scars of barren rubble were formed at the hands of a growing enterprise capitalizing on gold that the rivers deposit throughout their floodplains. A new study published in Environmental Research Letters shows that the spread of this devastation has quickened and increasingly affected a unique Amazonian ecosystem.

In 1807, pioneering German naturalist Alexander von Humboldt published a now-iconic illustration of the Ecuadorean volcano Chimborazo, known as Tableau Physique. One half of the mountain he drew is lush and verdant, skirted by thin clouds, smoke billowing from the snow-capped summit. The other half is a mountain silhouette coated with species names, each written at the rough elevation where Humboldt encountered it. It’s a reminder of the richness of life a single mountain can hold.
