BRING THE SAME ENERGY THAT YOU DID FOR NOTRE DAME PrayforAmazonas
,"The dry season creates favorable conditions for use and spread of fire, but starting a fire is the work of humans, either deliberately or by accident." Studies have shown that the alarming fires of the Amazon rainforest did not stem from unprecedented warmth and dryness, but from the human practice of slash and burn, an illegal deforestation effort to clear land for farming and cattle ranching.
As the largest rainforest in the world, the Amazon acts as our planet's lungs, producing more than 20% of oxygen into the Earth's atmosphere. It also acts as a vital carbon store that helps slow down the pace of global warming, by sucking up 2.4 million metric tons of atmospheric carbon annually. As the fires keep on raging, we are facing the sad truth that the Amazon is dying; this means we are dying too.
