Ok, maybe you innocently bought mainstream media's misinformation about Brazil's wildfires. Your favorite artist/athlete shared a pic of a burning koala. A hopeless politician shared a photo from 2003. So, to help us all out: a thread #AmazonFires #ActForTheAmazon #MacronLies
Some maps and numbers: this is Brazil, 8.516.000 km², world's fifth-largest country and a magnificent forest on the top left of it. 
Now, let's color in green every environmental conservation Area: national parks, wildlife reguges, national forests, etc, etc. There are 1.871 of them and alone they cover 18% of Brazil's territory.

"The fires burning in the #Amazon rain forest are so large and widespread that smoke has wafted thousands of miles away to the Atlantic coast, according to the World Meteorological Organization"

People are deliberately starting fires in the #AmazonRainforest to illegally deforest indigenous land for cattle ranching

TRANSLATION:
For 2 years we’ve fought to preserve [our reservation] & these assholes came in & burned it down.
They are killing our rivers, our sources of life, & now they have set our reserve on fire. Tomorrow we are closing the roads & I want all the media here to see this.

🌎The #AmazonFires show there can be no #GreenNewDeal w/out indigenous rights
🌳By safeguarding sovereignty over ancestral lands-- which make up 1/4 of the earth's surface-- we can reverse deforestation
⚖️#GND is our best shot at stabilizing the climate & repairing injustice

Você sabe o que está acontecendo na Amazônia?
É importante conversarmos sobre a destruição da nossa floresta e a falta de atenção que o governo está dando para o assunto.

Você deve estar se perguntando da onde saiu tanto incêndio. Em 10 de agosto, fazendeiros do Pará anunciaram o “dia do fogo”. Um dos líderes afirmou que o evento teve o objetivo de “mostrar ao presidente que (os produtores) querem trabalhar”.

Agropecuários da região do Pará se uniram para queimar ao mesmo tempo diversas áreas já em processo de desmatamento. No primeiro dia do evento, foram 124 registros de focos de incêndio. No seguinte, o número saltou para 237. Produtores de outros estados aderiram ao movimento.
Grave: Desmatamento na Amazônia em junho cresce quase 60% em relação ao mesmo período em 2018 oglobo.globo.com/sociedade/desm…
"Em junho, a Amazônia perdeu 762,3 km² de floresta, o equivalente a duas vezes a área de Belo Horizonte. É o pior registro do mês desde 2016. No acumulado dos últimos 180 dias, o quadro também inspira preocupações."
"No mesmo período, em junho de 2018, o desmatamento havia sido de 488,4 km². Na prática, a floresta perdeu duas cidades do porte de Paris a mais em comparação ao ano passado."
