1/ The Amazon forest is burning up, we’ve all heard about it by now. What can you do about it? A thread in 8 chapters. 🌳🔥👩🏼🚒💪🏾
2/ Spread the word, help raise awareness. Just like @GretaThunberg gave all of us & those in power no option but to listen and act, you can now do the same with the Amazon. Inform yourself and share the knowledge: blog.ecosia.org/brazils-amazon…
@GretaThunberg 3/ There are many organisation you can donate to to help protect animal & tree species living in the Amazon. Consider donating to the @WWF or @RnfrstAlliance , for example. Comment under this tweet for more organizations protecting the Amazon!
@GretaThunberg @WWF @RnfrstAlliance 4/ Let’s not forget the +1,000,000 #indigenouspeoples living in the Amazon Forest. Their home is burning up. Donate to orgs like @AmazonWatch for much needed support 👐🏽
@GretaThunberg @WWF @RnfrstAlliance @AmazonWatch 5/ The main reason #Brazil's government is encouraging the deforestation of this and other Brazilian forests, is because the country depends on exports of meat, soy and wood/paper….
@GretaThunberg @WWF @RnfrstAlliance @AmazonWatch 6/ Decrease your paper&wood purchases. Buy only rainforest-safe products. Follow @RnfrstAlliance’s frog, f.ex. If you don’t know what that means, watch this video (also a very welcome comic relief to cope with all the devastating Amazon news):
@GretaThunberg @WWF @RnfrstAlliance @AmazonWatch 7/ Also consider reducing your meat consumption, the main cause of deforestation & #CO2 emissions worldwide. 🍆🍅🥗🥕🌶🥬🌽
@GretaThunberg @WWF @RnfrstAlliance @AmazonWatch 8/ Ask the #EuropeanUnion - one of Brazil’s main buyer of meat - to use its bargaining power w/ the newly signed "#Mercosur trade agreement" w/ Brazil & other LATAM countries to only import products respectful of people & nature. More on the agreement: theguardian.com/environment/co…
@GretaThunberg @WWF @RnfrstAlliance @AmazonWatch 9/ Bonus thread addition: if you have more suggestions on what an individual can do to help the Amazon, don't hesitate to share! #Amazonas #AmazonFire
