In August 2007, Germany’s  most successful music export worldwide, the Scorpions, already ventured deep  into the Brazilian jungle for a sold out show – in front of 40,000 enthusiastic  fans, the band played a concert in Manaus, the  metropolis on the Amazon river. A cooperation  with Greenpeace was already existent at this point and when the band returned  to South America the next year, they happily intensified  it. Klaus Meine, lead singer of the Scorpions, recollects, “Due to the  unbelievable success we returned to Manaus in 2008, but we also played Rio, Sao Paulo and Recife again. During the  show in Belem we accepted Greenpeace’s  invitation to participate in a three-hour flight across the rainforest in order  to get a picture of the proceeding destruction (an area twice the size of Germany has  been destroyed by fire so far). We wholeheartedly supported Greenpeace with  large banners saying “Stop the deforestation” during these shows and part of  the proceeds from this DVD will consequently be given to this organization that is committed in so many parts of the world.”
