                         local/regional climate change have been closely intertwined in 
                         Brazil. Recent studies show that this relationship has been 
                         changing since the mid 2000s, with the burgeoning intensification 
                         and commoditization of Brazilian agriculture. On one hand, this 
                         accrues considerable environmental dividends including a 
                         pronounced reduction in deforestation (which is becoming decoupled 
                         from agricultural production), resulting in a decrease of <40% in 
                         nationwide greenhouse gas emissions since 2005, and a potential 
                         cooling of the climate at the local scale. On the other hand, 
                         these changes in the land-use system further reinforce the 
                         long-established inequality in land ownership, contributing to 
                         rural-urban migration that ultimately fuels haphazard expansion of 
                         urban areas. We argue that strong enforcement of sector-oriented 
                         policies and solving long-standing land tenure problems, rather 
                         than simply waiting for market self-regulation, are key steps to 
                         buffer the detrimental effects of agricultural intensification at 
                         the forefront of a sustainable pathway for land use in Brazil.",
