Conteúdo: 	New remote sensing data on vegetation cover and restoration opportunities bring hope to the BrazilianAtlantic Forest, one of the hottest of the 36 global biodiversity hotspots. Available estimates of remainingvegetation cover in the biome currently range from 11% to 16%. However, our new land-cover map,prepared at the highest resolution ever (5 m), reveals a current vegetation cover of 28%, or 32 millionhectares (Mha) of native vegetation. Simultaneously, we found 7.2 Mha of degraded riparian areas, ofwhich 5.2 Mha at least must be restored before 2038 by landowners for legislation compliance. Restoringthe existing legal debt could increase native vegetation cover in the Atlantic Forest up to 35%. Sucheffort, if well planned and implemented, could reduce extinction processes by increasing connectivity ofvegetation remnants and rising total native cover to above the critical biodiversity threshold establishedfor different taxonomic groups. If undertaken, this process can be adaptive to climate change and boostsustainable development in this most populous biome in Brazil, turning it into a hopespot.
