Brazilian tourism officials are hoping to change the country's image as a mere haven for scantily-clad beachgoers by hosting U.N. climate talks next year in the Amazon rainforest city of Belem that will focus on environmental sustainability and ending deforestation to slow global warming. The summit is expected to boost Brazil's attractiveness as an ecotourism destination and increase travel to its Amazon rainforest and other biomes that offer the world's greatest biodiversity, Tourism Minister Celso Sabino said. Only 9% of current visitors to Brazil are ecotourists, while almost two out of every three tourists come for sun and beach, he said in an interview late on Tuesday.
