With five per cent of the world's flora and fauna, Brazil's enormous Cerrado district is a rich mosaic of grass and woodland that is being destroyed at twice the speed of the Amazon rainforest.

Ice creams flavoured with unusual Cerrado fruits and bird-watching holidays for British tourists may not be able to compete with large-scale farming, but locals hope they'll give the area the publicity it needs for real protection.
