And if we want to burn it to a crisp and build a FAVELA, we can.
>But we don't
This entire crisis was manufacted by France and the media.
>why
The frog fears the macaco. They know they can't handle the competition against the brazilian BBC (Barbecue), cattle and vast fertile lands. Their country is sterile and dry, not only their women when they see a white man. Their country is tiny, not only the members of your average french man.
The media hates Bolsonaro because he is a conservative. By embracing their propaganda, you're hijacking the single most conservative leader in the world right now. He's given guns back to the brazilians, is liberating the economy, fired 10000+ leftists in the government, is privatizing corrupt public enterprises and he's not even done with his first year yet.
>so why is the Amazon on fire
Sazonality. Fires spontaneously burst in the Amazon because there are constant thunder storms there. When the air becomes too dry (August and September), the frequent rain that usually happens on the Amazon doesn't happen as much. Fires spontaneously burst, then.
>How can I confirm OP is right / wrong
Look at any historical series of fire spots in the Amazon in Observatório da Amazônia instead of buying into globalist fake news that Macron posted on Twitter instead of fact checking. They have charts and data that prove that fires in the Amazon always rise from 7000 to 20000+ during August, and that 2019 is not even the worst year ever.
>But they are the lungs of the world!
Trees generate as much CO2 in their decomposition as they generate O2 during their lifespan. The only reliable lungs of the world are phytoplanktons. In fact, those life forms produced the O2 of the world billions of years before the first tree came along.
>so Bolsonaro is not to blame?
He isn't. If you join in the hate bandwagon because you dislike Brazil, you are shooting yourself in the foot and empowering the globalists.
