I feel like since we can easily image the amazon and comfortably track deforestation, why is this only a big deal now?
Life would be a lot easier if we just presented the data for it is
Science and Tech should run the world
Angel Cox
Brayden Richardson
oh no, another person who seems to think tech can solve the world?
Explain to me why we have politicians then?
Levi Martinez
One should run. Would you vote for Sergey Brin?
They farm people's data and use it against them like it's nothing. They would like be terrible
Andrew Thompson
Not only tech can't save the world. Tech is the reason the world is being destroyed in the first place.
Alexander Myers
Lets go back to the good old days
Jack Russell
bolsonaro is so dumb
Alexander Harris
back to when we burned coal and didn't even know our data was important
back before google, back before we knew a solution (datawallet), back when we didn't feel so bad for invading countries
Cameron Clark
Tbh what is he meant to do?
How does he police the amazon?
Charles Perry
Hue man bad!
Michael Torres
Might makes right in the real world.
Where the military that’s going to enforce your claim to anything? How do you punish someone that won’t submit to your power and theft (taxation)?

there's nothing wrong going on in the Amazon Forrest but the occasional criminal deforestation (miniscule)
the fires are a common occurrence in any Forrest, it's dry season
the rate is ok, the affected area too
Ryan Baker
We can stop deforestation with blockchain and machine learning
Jackson Ortiz
>create supersmart AI
>make it the leader of the world with absolute power
>ask it to save the planet
>it kills 90% of humanity
it checks out actually
Kayden Rodriguez
Bullshit. It's marketing.
Nathan Sanchez
It would only spare pajeets, cavemen, and islanders. 1st world westerners disproportionately produce waste and pollution because as it turns out consumption produces more problems than the manufacturing
Liam Bennett
Mostly because science and technology are not properly applied for solving problems and decision-making? Politics is a very suboptimal way of problem-solving.
Nicholas Baker
No: it is the socioeconomic system in which the tech is developed and used. The motivations, contexts and purposes of their creation, design and application.
Human society has changed many times. And obviously it needs drastic tech-driven change again now. Rapidly and not "maybe in 20 years or so". Do what you can in helping design and realize this future now.

Mason Butler

Bait 3/10. No, they're not okay. The rate should be negative: it should grow via reforestation.
>Deforestation of the Amazon is about to reach a threshold beyond which the region's tropical rainforest may undergo irreversible changes that transform the landscape into degraded savanna with sparse, shrubby plant cover and low biodiversity.
