My published work has centered on green capitalism, carbon credits, deforestation, tree planting, postindustrial restoration, and energy transitions in Brazil, the US, and the UK. This work includes my first book—Forest Lost: Producing Green Capitalism in the Brazilian Amazon—and collaborative work on energy justice in the United States and South America. My current research centers on tree planting and environmental restoration in postindustrial England.
