Amazon Rainforest burning

A huge tragedy! The lungs of the planet have been in fire for more than 17 days. I hope they can be extinguished soon.

Sadly people care more about chicken sandwiches. My god, we deserve to have our planet explode, don't we?

Sounds like this is more or less on par with what happens there every year.

I also remember as a kid reading TMNT Adventures #14 and #15 and Jagwar's speech about all the acres being burned everyday and thinking to myself it would all be gone in, like, weeks. I've been pretty skeptical about "oh noes, the Amazon is going away!" news ever since.

Sidenote: the "Amazon Fire" TV promotions everywhere seem suddenly very awkward.

The Amazon is the Earth's "lung",basically. So it's definitely a terrible thing. Plus, the Amazon has been getting slowly destroyed for ages now. So it's only a matter of time until it's completely gone, I'm afraid.
