    1. We love and support our President Bolsonaro of Brazil !!! August 25th on the streets in support of our dear President Bolsonaro !!!

    2. The media is really trying to get him out of the presidency spreading fake news, but he’s actually the best president we had in so many years! And no, the Amazon does not produce 20% of our oxygen, this information is false.

    3. If you eat meat, you can’t talk environment. LEARN WHAT IS CAUSING MOST OF CO2 pollution – meat and dairy industry. Now look up Raw Vegan Not Gross or Avantgarde vegan or Rawfully Christina to see HOW WELL YOU CAN LIVE VEGAN

    1. @Keops PS
      August 25th in Brazil – Aveida Paulista, all together in support of our dear President Bolsonaro!

  1. 20 more yrs of rump, and we would have to build underground and regular folks will be using oxygen concentrators just so they won’t feel out of breath.

  2. Bye guys. This is it. Its inevitable. Illegal businesses will never dissappear sadly. This is the end guys. Sadly in the near future we will be in crisis and this is it. Generation z. Last letter of the alphabet. No more letters, we’re done 🙁

    1. Stop spouting nonsense.

      We have the technology to fix things. We “just” need to upgrade our societal software.

      Ethernal growth is not possible outside fairytales and economic textbooks.
      Acknowledging this will lead to a different world, but not all change is negative.

      Who will miss diesel exhaust and acid rain?

  3. It’s crazy how our government classifies environmentalists as terrorists but guys like him and the oil industry actually terrorize the planet

    2. @cristiane cristiane Good for you. We are definitely not supporting him. We Europeans strive to ban the products from Brazil unless this mad burning ends. Good luck then with the economic depression.

  4. I hate living in the 21st century. The worst era of humanity so far. Yes we had plague in the Middle Ages, the world wars last century, invasions, but that seems nothing compared to these times. At least our ancestors didnt struggle with lack of oxygen, melthibg ice caps, global famine, what we are going to experience in few years. As for me, I always though my time should be in the 19th century, not now.

    1. Today we have medicine, long and healthy life expectancy, technology, more individual freedom than any previous generation. I’m so lucky to be alive during this era.

  5. This is the world we live in a dumb cathedral gets burned the whole world is outraged. Something essential to alot of species survival like the Amazon no one blinks an eye…..

    1. I am outraged by the destruction of the Amazon and the destruction of the indigenous peoples of the Amazon

    2. Dude. They will still get your packages pronto. Everything isnt in the same warehouse. They already thout about problems like this.

    3. Inbred Hicks and conservatives the bane of this planet… Jeff bezos is latin immigrant you moron. Same it with me f u jesus

    4. @Cyber Monk You’re both the cancer of Earth. The Republicans are destroying the Earth, one Rainforest at a time, and you liberals are causing Feminists to exist.

  6. Let’s all collectively use aur power and start meditating and visualizing that it starts raining🙏🏼❤🌧🌧🌧💧💧

    2. A fire starts and you want to blame a President? LMAO! What, You think Wilderness will never burn? OMG!

  7. “a sign from God or whoever” – what do you mean by “whoever”, Chris? Or are you just pandering to your core atheistic audience?

  8. 2004- the ozone layer is damaged
    2007- ozone is healing
    2013- never too late to save the earth
    2015- never too late to save the earth
    2018- never too late to save the earth
    2050- never too late to save the earth

  9. one part of the world getting destroyed by fire(AMAZON) while the other with water(PUNJAB)… and all governments care about is having bigger GUN than the other guy in the room..
