Amazon Rainforest in Brazil Now Producing More CO2 Gas Than it Absorbs

[QUOTE] The amount of deforestation spiked fourfold by 2019 and saw 9.6 million acres of forest lost in that year alone. Crucially, Brazil welcomed new president Bolsonaro into office the same year.

I hope that Chinese rocket lands on Bolsenora.

I see that Bolsonaro is trying to shake down the U.S., saying we should pay Brazil not to destroy the rain forest. It would probably be worth it, except that he'd take the money and burn it all down anyway.

We should just seize the jungle and protect it. What could Brazil do about it? Ban Americans from visiting Rio?

It’s NOT like a jungle in here.

Do they actually turn it into farmland? What’s the point?

[quote]Deforestation surged under Bolsonaro and Trump ignored the problem

Shocking!

The Amazon Rainforest now identifies as the Amazon Farm.

Disgusting.

That sucks. The good news I that we get most of our oxygen from the ocean and we can all plant more trees at home.
