Having its Berry Chantilly Cake and Little Debbies, too: Amazon, which bought Whole Foods in 2017, doesn't want to sully the chain's clean-living reputation, but it also doesn't want to miss out on Americans spending on groceries.

First scenario: The company announced 14,000 layoffs earlier this week because it's worried about its performance and wants to cut costs.

Amazon expanded from being more than just an e-commerce site to a marketplace that people rely on for quick deliveries of their goods. During its Delivering the Future event, the company unveiled upgrades making those deliveries even more efficient. Amazon said that in 2025, it will deliver the fastest speeds ever for Prime members.

Amazon and Alphabet are two of the biggest companies in the world, ranking as the fifth and fourth largest, respectively. Conventional wisdom states that as these companies become larger, it becomes more difficult for them to grow at a rapid rate. However, both of these companies have put up respectable growth rates that are often quicker than the broader market.

Brazil's Petrobras has been given permission to drill for oil near the mouth of the Amazon River, casting a shadow over the country's green ambitions as it prepares to host UN climate talks. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, the president, has come under fire from conservationists who argue his oil expansion plans clash with his image as a global leader on climate change. Brazil will host Cop30 climate talks in the Amazon city of Belem next month.

Last fall, the house of Bezos announced a $500 million investment in SMR startup X-Energy. On Thursday, the e-tailer revealed that X-Energy's Xe-100 SMR designs would eventually supply Washington State with "up to" 960 megawatts of clean energy. "Eventually" is the key word here as construction isn't expected to start until the end of the decade and the plants won't begin operations until sometime in the 2030s.

This Second Bienal das Amazônias seems to understand its contradictions without attempting to resolve them. Curated by Manuela Moscoso together with Sara Garzón, Jean da Silva, and Mónica Amieva, the biennial unfolds around the idea of verde-distância ("green distance"), a notion borrowed from Benedicto Monteiro (1924-2008)-a Brazilian writer, journalist, and politician-that gestures toward the aliveness of the forest and its reverberation across bodies, landscapes, and times.

The world's largest meat company, JBS, has allegedly fuelled illegal deforestation, land grabs and human rights abuses in the Brazilian Amazon by sourcing cattle from ranches operating inside protected areas, according to a new Human Rights Watch investigation.
