Fires in Brazil
- superduh 7y agoFuck Bolsonaro!
- vcoelho 7y agoI really wonder about how educated people justifies bringing a child into this world. Brazil have more 3.5 years of the current administration and things won't get better because their plataform is all about pleasing the pecuary lobby.
- CM30 7y agoWell, you need educated people to deal with the problems caused by global warming, including finding new clean energy sources and carbon sequestration. If the educated people don't have kids, then that leaves people who don't value education as much, without others who can inspire them and their families to get an education. Is that really better? I'd say no.
- vcoelho 7y agoYou're correct, but I was thinking more about the emotional decision of "OK, I will raise children into this current scenario that is rapidly approaching beyond reparation.".
- lowdose 7y agoReproduction is a force of nature, assuming your a heterosexual man, have you ever dated a chick above 30 without kids? I know guys that take the full condom home.

- holografix 7y agoIt’s a sad state of affairs for Brazil. Electing a right winged, ill equipped, ignorant nobody in order to remove the most corrupt political party in the history of Brazil.
- eionh 7y agoDemocracy works poorly in countries with a low average IQ.
- cc439 7y agoWho's going to set things right other than the children of the talented and capable?
- brunotheman 7y agohey I agree with both of you, and concur by top posting. Let's bring more trees and babies. It'll sort everything,
- brunotheman 7y agoI am so sure.
- frankbreetz 7y agoFrom the article: >>As of August 16, 2019, an analysis of NASA satellite data indicated that total fire activity across the Amazon basin this year has been close to the average in comparison to the past 15 years. (The Amazon spreads across Brazil, Peru, Colombia, and parts of other countries.) "The US space agency, Nasa, has on the other hand said that overall fire activity in the Amazon basin is slightly below average this year. " https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-49443389 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-49443389 I am getting the impression that the BBC doesn't trust NASA. Is this part of the current administration's war on science? Is the world blowing this out of proportion? I don't know what will happen if NASA isn't a respected scientific institution any more. How does anyone know what is actually going on in the world? I tend to believe what NASA says, I still think all the publicity this is getting will make the world a better place. We can not have a big enough carbon sink. Everyone has an agenda and the news is trying get clicks, so they sensationalize everything.
