We are facing a horrible situation now with wast amounts of the Amazon forrest burning. One football field worth of forrest disappear every minute now.
This picture (below) is not from the amazon, but a local forrest in Norway to illustrate and make us think “how would it be if our nearest forrest burned?” Because the Amazon rain forrest is also the homes of several indigenous tribes. They live in and of the forest and they need it for their survival.
And the rest of the Earth needs the Amazon Forrest as well. Several organisations are collecting funds for this cause, for example The Rainforest Foundation.
I’ve read that it’s important that we share this message so it goes out viral. I wish for extreme rain to help stop the fires. Until then, let’s do what we can with sharing information and if you can, support the cause. We owe it to the Amazon to take care of it, like it takes care of us.
