The sun sets behind a tree as a tract of the Amazon jungle burns near Apui, Amazonas State, Brazil on Aug. 10, 2020.Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro on Tuesday angrily denied the existence of fires in the Amazon rain forest, calling it a “lie,” despite data produced by his own government showing that thousands of fires are surging across the region.
But in a speech to other South American leaders on Tuesday, Bolsonaro challenged foreign representatives to fly over the Amazon saying that travelling by air from the far flung cities of Boa Vista to Manaus, you would not see a single flame. Bolsonaro interfered in Inpe after it released unfavourable data on Amazon deforestation last year, firing the agency’s head Ricardo Galvao who defended his agency’s numbers that showed rising destruction.
Deforestation rose 34.5% in the 12-months through July, compared to the same period a year ago. Forest clearances did fall in July, the first decline in 15 months, a point emphasized by Bolsonaro.
How do politicians like him, harper, Ford, Bush I & II, Trump and alike get elected in the first place? Is it the fact that we simply have enough voters like they are to put them over the top. There has to be a better way to live on this planet than what white men invented.
And so was COVID right? Then he was diagnosed with it - TWICE. A real winner.
China 🇨🇳 sends an inordinate amount or time burning down forests in every country in the world. Engineering floods, fake earthquakes and locusts in Africa. Then scream decolonize everything— while they are busy trying to colonize the world.
You’re such a waste yute. Don’t give me this hoopla
Like last year or was it the year before?
