Ahead of the G7 summit in France, world leaders are sounding off on the fires raging through the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. A spokesperson for French President Emmanuel Macron said Macron believes Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro lied to him in June when he reportedly promised to do more to combat climate change.
The vast majority of the fires have been set by loggers and ranchers to clear land for cattle. The practice is on the rise, encouraged by Bolsonaro, who is backed by the country's so-called "beef caucus." Bolsonaro has dismissed accusations of responsibility for the fires, placing blame on NGOs.
There have been 72,843 fires in Brazil this year, with more than half in the Amazon region, INPE said. That's more than an 80% increase compared with the same period last year.The Amazon is often referred to as the planet's lungs, producing 20% of the oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere.
It is considered vital in slowing global warming, and it is home to uncountable species of fauna and flora. Roughly half the size of the United States, it is the largest rainforest on the planet.
How to not die in America (easiest method works 200%)
1. Always have an AK 47 on you with bullets
2. Bulletproof vest, shoes, and helmet
3. Bulletproof school
4. Bulletproof house
5. Bulletproof work
6. Bulletproof car
7. Only go outside when needed & necessary
8. Underground facility in case a war happened
It’s also recommended to have tons of water and food inside so you survive for years if needed.
@Siriema Pantanal
The United States is the most popular in America, I’ll keep calling it America.
@RicktRoll AMERICA is Brazil. Everything is fake news. You should learn the America’s history properly. Here is a good opportunity. “The name America (applied to present-day Brazil) appeared for what is believed the first time on Martin Waldseemüller’s 1507 world map, known as the Baptismal Certificate of the New World, and also America’s Birth Certificate.” ** Now you know what AMERICA is about ****
What idiot, here and everywhere in the world we have insecurity, ever heard of a terrorist attack in Brazil? Here we are not shitting with fear
Hahaha fail at point number 1 if you’re black.. How to Survive in the usa? Don’t be near a weapon idiot
Trump on the phone to President Bolsonaro…”Why don’t you just rake the leaves up”
@Steve Austin You are an idiot…Go take your meds!
All countries destroyer their forest, and now they want to talk about Brazil?
Are you rally worried about the Amazon, or its mines ? Like graphene
The european media is crazy, The corruption in Brazil is over, its bacteria
Clown in CHIEF Bolsonaro is an idiot, but this is a pretext for protectionists measures against Brazilian agricultural producers. The facts:
1. Macron and others are twitting fake pictures of fires (from early 2000s).
2. “Day of fire” is fake.
3. Small farmers are the source of burning.
4. Fires and deforestation were much higher in the previous 5 governments (so all this commotion is a reaction to Bolsonaro’s stupid comments).
5. When other countries in Europe, Asia or North America destroy their forests, there is no outcry.
Lol…
Such a stupid people out there ? What do they think about having money without earth 🌏?
@Andrew Stevenson just what youtube needs. Another keyboard tough guy. Get a job

the Russian Taiga is on fire since months and zero Fucks have been given…it should also be addressed
Simi822 Are you dumb? The Taiga is supposed to burn down and pollinate. The Amazon is not built for that!
Janet Masiello HE LEGIT TOLD YOU THE THAT IT’S NORMAL FOR PINEFOREST TO EXPAND THAT RIGHT HERE 7:40! FFS! It legit irks me how ignorant people try to spread bullshit amongst themselves without trying to google it first.
Cause brazil dont have nuclear weapons , russia does.
@Cloud you Da Silva Again see my comment. Plus I’m pretty sure Cnn or any american news source of that matter are afraid of criticizing Russia.
These evil people really need to take a day off because they’re really ruining the planet.
And what are u doing to help ?
All countries destroyer their forest, and now they want to talk about Brazil?
Are you rally worried about the Amazon, or its mines ? Like graphene
The european media is crazy, The corruption in Brazil is over, its bacteria
It isn’t Bolsonaro’s fault, the loggers who burn it are criminal, he just give permission to companys like FaberCastel, wich plants all over again
The forest absorbs enormus amount of water during the rains. No forest will result in enormus floodings, this will lead to erosion. The end result will be poverty.
And maybe even death of South America
barbiegirlremix2019.info/jhkhjkym
Yeah totally burn it all down so u can save a few hundred people we should care more about the whole world that’s why we supuse not burn down LET THOSE FEW HUNDREDS S DIE
Nice the next IRL season pass has a desert. dang cant wait to explore this part of the map
Don’t worry folks “the second coming ” will wave his hand and put the fires out.
Mister Morgan Not the chosen one,the second coming is in a Trump tweet yesterday pay attention.
@Pro White Advocacy chump is a fucking moron.
Clarence Walker 👍🏻😎
It doesn’t matter if you believe in climate change or not. WHY TAKE THE CHANCE?
It’s that simple. Why take the chance to see if the world will deteriorate?
This. Even if climate change isn’t man made, do you really want to live in a world where we did nothing to fix it?
Cause they’ll be dead soon. They don’t care
Trump has no idea what the amazon is or everything to do it. He a lost cause!!!
@Owl Dusty hold up. If trump was a bad president then why didn’t he won. Oh wait I know why.
He can’t find Amazon on a card🙍🙍🙍
@Bijou Yser exactly
@Owl Dusty who fucking cares?
Sir Loxley Mendoza why are you fighting little kids just shows how mature you are 💀
I don’t understand why countries aren’t banning together dealing with this massive fire? totally bizarre!
@Cheryl Sibson There’s a tremendous an unprecedented amount of injustice happening around the natural world today.
& there are forces at play that is doing everything in their power to silence voices that dare speak out at all, both online and real life, all coming down to their “bottom line”, or with intentions of harming another country in some way.
Paranoia and misinformation also leads many legitimate people down a path they’d probably otherwise not have taken.
Some tend to think that just because there have been cautions and warnings about certain problems for so long, that they’re nothing more than scare tactics, yet today we are increasingly finding stronger and stronger evidence to counter those claims.
They need only use their heads and learn where and how to look for themselves…
The problem I see is, many are unwittingly complacent with their own lives, too busy to think about the bigger problems in the world that are happening everyday. Too comfortable to make any drastic change that will interfere with the conveniances that are increasingly becoming a double-edged sword to humanity, as well as for many other plant and animal species on Earth.
It is too big for any one of us to make an impact, which is why it’s almost entirely going to come down to making political and governmental changes that will address these issues.
The world is full of opposing opinions on everything, what we seem to be short of is people that are willing to simply take in expert objective facts at face value, rather than “I think” economics.
If we continue to wait until the problem is big enough that it is actually effective those with the power to do something, those that are profiting off of inactivity, yes we will likely see change, but not at the cost of already so much that won’t be recoverable or fixable.
We can’t continue on this “monetary system” thinking either. I’m sure we can continue to use it in some fashion, but we also need to make a more balanced system that will even out the distribution of these resources that we already have in our economy, and as it stands nobody or no organization is hardly willing to take such steps…
It’s a complicated problem, that requires and demands a complicated solution, the sooner the easier, and better off we’ll all be.
This is all my personal opinion from what I’ve researched and witnessed… no doubt there are many that would be willing to pick this apart and object many points I’ve made, but I’m not the person to take it any further on it. I’m just someone that is generally concerned with how all of this is overall heading as of now.
@Skull Kid which is why I imagine why skull kid isn’t your real name? well aware. Have a peaceful evening
@Cheryl Sibson I have a separate account using my identity. Similar content and talking points on it, I just stay off of big media channels and troll havens on it for obvious reasons.
I apologize for the book I just posted xD I’ve been at it too long tonight.
& may you have a peaceful evening as well.
Good talking to you!
@Skull Kid https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZBgihGSKrkm7t1D8Iejilw this is what I find.
@Doukijou lmao…consumes ALL the oxygen it produces?..explain that one dumbass
I love how CNN triggers the low-educated MAGAts.
The Fibler A crisis like this is only helping to stir up the Left’s base and waking others up to the truth: that our current leader denies science and MUST GO. 2020 is going to be fight for humanity!
Nobodies triggered. I just want to smell SMOKE
The Fiblerling with himself again !!
And Trump will win the election again next year, so everyone is wrong and your right, cowards hide behind keyboards.
I’ll say goodbye soon
Though its the end of the world,
Don’t blame yourself now
Shelley Turner
And if it’s true,
I will surround you,
And give life to a world,
That’s our own
Are you okay?
Parsa Rathernotsay no like have you literally been paying attention to what’s going on all across the globe?
Haikus are so nice
Although the subject is not

Brainwashed
OIL AND GREED
NOT EVEN WARS
GOODBYE OXYGEN
WILL DESTROY ENVIRONMENT
KKKKKKKKK Vai se foder gringo.
Brasileiros tão a frente dos socialistas do Estado Únidos.
@:3 Universo Quântico dançando funk
Y’all are acting like the amazon is all we breathe off of, we only breathe from 20% of it so we are not going to die if it gets burnt down, but it’s not all gonna burn spawn cause there’s more than 1 million miles of the amazon. I’m not saying I don’t care about the fire I’m actually extremely scared because one day I want to go to the amazon.
@G Funkeiros pelo menos não se metem em política
@:3 Universo Quântico jui jitsu
People should forget greed and save Environment
Why will your children live after total destruction of environment.
ONGs are starting the FIRES here in Brazil,George Soros
burned this time of year in Brazil is completely normal, you should study things better before you talk nonsense
@Sir Loxley Mendoza Oh boy, not this stupid argument again. The Internet wasn’t a “capitalist invention”. Read “The Entrepreneurial State” book please. Why are Libertarians so stupid?
@Sir Loxley Mendoza What you just said has to be the most asinine and the most ridiculous thing I have every heard.
@Guitmasu Korasaki It’s not normal, the fires are started by farmers.
They’re driving the Natives out of their homes an entire civilization and forest. All of those trees 🤔😭😭 STOP KILLING OUR HOME. EARTH
@armzngunz The same department that never did anything for amazon?? The same guys keeping native people as pets in a zoo?? This year has been better for amazon than the last 15 years, Macron himself used a picture from 1989 to blame Bolsonaro for 2019 problems. Also Brazil doesn’t have a lot of money to do much, instead of trying to screw our economy even more, not trying to stop it from growing would give Brazil more resources to keep Amazon safe, if you care so much about Brazilian territory. Anyway, we are doing better than we were in the past, but if some globalists need to lie about it, then I would be questioning their underlying motifs.
@Alrun Ah cool, more regurgitating of “alt-facts”. Better for the amazon? How has it been better if the forest is still shrinking at record speeds? How the hell does your brain draw the connection that chopping down more forest will lead to the forest being saved?
@armzngunz I’m not saying illegal farmers and drug cartel wars are not to blame.
And the forest Amazonia is not only on the state named Amazonas, and it also cover other countries that are not even being mentioned by politicians: https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/145464/fires-in-brazil
this is a catastrophe ,all world powers need to get on board and send help,of course not the USA
Vote for local and national officials who care about the environment. Stop buying from companies that pollute like nestle
Ihate Tobethatguy , VOTE REPUBLICAN THEY CARE ABOUT PEOPLE NOT THINGS.
You best send it you fucker, because US is one of the countries that buy the illegal wood
This should be deemed as a crime against humanity. 🤦🏾♀️
Shut up you don’t know Brazil.
Honey, Brazil is the country that preserves the most forests in the world, fire has always existed, but we have to distinguish what is true and fake news. Then study before opening your pretentious mouth.
Get a shovel and help put out the fire.
They don’t care for the forest, they want the richness that Amazon has. According to NASA’s world view site, there was a much bigger fire happening in Africa and much more smoke but they already stole the entire Africa.
Hmmm yet it seems no one is saying “let’s send parts of our military or firefighting agencies to help fight the blazes”
Edit: except Mexico.
William Baker, the Brazilians have endless slash burning for decades, now it’s a problem? Should have stopped it a long time ago.
The problem is not the capacity to do the firefighting. The problem is the political will to let the whole thing burn down to open it up for economic development.
A foreign country sending in military will possibly be seen as an act of war by the Brazilian government, thus starting a war with Brazil. Don’t say that the current Brazilian president won’t do that. He already said to France to stay out of it.
Matthew Hager France would Crush Brazil Instantly. That and France has NATO if they needed it
@ORA ORA Yeah, but if France would be the offensive, and Brazil would have Trump on their side.
Trump knows, he’s going to hell, so he doesn’t mind getting used to warmer temperatures.
Erykah Bititi it’s a thought construct, not any particular ethnicity that’s the problem…
Capitalism reigns as the planet dies…
VladI ha ha ha you made me laugh.
@Erykah Bititi it does not matter it still affects everyone Forrest keep global warming to develop slow
