Stop burning our beloved Amazon Forests

The Issue

Some effects of Amazon fires is that the Amazon holds about 100 billion tons of carbon. In only 2017, every coal plant in the world combined emitted 15 billion tons.  So if only a small portion of the Amazon was destroyed day the Amazon rainforest burning, climate change can be a still driver of it. Even worse, the deforestation rate has increased by 88 percent over the past year. The number of fires has increased 84 percent compared to the same time in 2018.

Many sources state that a reason that the Amazon is burning is because of workers who burn some trees to create more land, but then the fires get out of control, and it can’t be stopped.

I all these terrible burnings kill thousands of exotic wild life and their habitat, while also releasing harmful chemicals not just for animals, for humans too! So if these workers are being selfish enough to burn the Amazon Rainforest without doubt, they should think about the future, and how it could harm not only the Brazilians, including them, but the WHOLE WORLD!

Brazilian Government, make it illegal to burn the Amazon Rainforest for some more land to sell! Punish these workers so the whole world isn’t sick and harmed in the near future. Keep not only us alive, but the Amazon Rainforest!
