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.

Forest fires are a normal thing. If humans won't meddle with their "creative" solutions in couple of years thing will be fine.

Such a tragic loss of forest-life.
Hopefully, it will eventually recover and heal. |

Not in the Amazon. Read an article that basically there is no such thing as a "natural" fire in the rainforest, and that any fires there are human-caused. And these, apparently, WERE. Started by industrial/logging companies for deforestation to clear land (and also to root out some native tribes), and got out of control due to drier than normal conditions (also caused by human activity). This is NOT "normal!

Did they ever put out these fires? I'm assuming they did, but I haven't seen any news report. I also notice we're not suffocating to death yet.

2. That's not how the ecosystem works. Science is usually boiled down for us to digest. Unfortunately, we lose a lot of the nuance from that process. It's easy to turn "a considerable amount of our atmosphere is conditioned by metabolic processes occurring in the South American rain forest" into "we're all going to run out of oxygen, stop eating hamburgers". That's obviously not the case. We're not all going to die because someone uses hairspray or drives an 8-cylinder car. The issue is that with continued abuse of the planet's resources, we risk our overall quality of life.
