I'm so sick of the eternal fingerpointing to Brazil and the rainforest,it is so hypocritical when everyone knows it will not be stopped and almost no countries are investing to counter the destruction of those trees. We are like 50 years behind in making a global effort of planting new trees en masse.

Sorry for fingerpoint at my own country. Don't really understand the hypocrisy there, but whatever.

Yeah, throughout my life this is a topic people have always talked about, but you have no idea how much worse it's become in the past couple years (aka when the last election happened). I suppose it's that much easier to burn down a forest when your president supports and may even be backing that idea financially, directly or indirectly. No previous government was able to stop it but by declaring to be against it and taking mild measures against it, it was slowed down a lot. Now, the forests are being burned at a faster pace than ever. So there has definitely been a change there.

Oh that was not directed at you but at the ones in power that can actually make an effort to counter the loss of forests around the world,each year politicians point at brazil and go on without trying to change something themselves about the forests in own countries.
