description This paper aimed at presenting the various forms of Payment for Environmental Services (PES) projects in Brazil and analyzing two specific cases of PES in the Amazon: The Cajari Carbon Project in the south of Amapá and the Incentive System for Environmental Services (SISA) in Acre. The hypothesis raised was that the appropriation and reinterpretation of market rhetoric present in environmental public policies, and in both cases under review, are indicators of current pressures on regional, national and international stages, between development – with a focus on fighting poverty – and environmental conservation. The methodology used was case study, literature review and interviews. The study allowed us to conclude that PSE projects in Brazil are used more as income transfer devices than any kind of commodification of the environment or use of market-based instruments.
