An article from the Washington Post (Article Linked Here) “reveal(s) that more than 75 percent of the rainforest is losing resilience, according to a study published Monday (March 7th 2022) in the journal Nature Climate Change. The vegetation is drier and takes longer to regenerate after a disturbance. Even the most densely forested tracts struggle to bounce back”. This will have devastating effects on our Earths atmosphere. 
     According to the same study, this widespread weakening is an early warning indication that the Amazon is approaching its "tipping point." The ecology could die suddenly and irreversibly, resulting in rising temperatures and other human stressors. In a couple of decades, more than half of the rainforest could be converted to savanna, endangering biodiversity, causing regional weather patterns to shift, and hastening climate change. It is vital that we stand with the indigenous protectors of the land. I am in close contact with the Cofan community of the Ecuadorian Amazon rainforest and they need your help to get UNESCO to declare their land a world heritage site. Please share and sign this petition so we can give this indigenous community the justice they deserve.
