It’s devastating to see how quickly the Amazon Rainforest is being destroyed. At this rate by 2030 more than a quarter of the Amazon biome will be without trees. Why is that so devastating? Here are four out of many reasons:
1. Nearly half of the worlds animal species live there and would be destroyed.
2. Many of the drugs we use today to treat diseases like Glaucoma, Leukemia, heart disease among many others come from plants in the Amazon. 70% of them help fight cancer.
3. Our air quality will drop significantly. Right now the rainforest stores carbon dioxide and recycles it into oxygen we can breathe.
4. 30 million indigenous people take shelter there and would be displaced.”

I’m going to give way to the people that are smarter than me , call me crazy.”

Standing in the mountains you would normally see thick and lush forests all around, now all I saw for miles and miles were the blackened tree trunks of the Blue Mountain Ash and melted glass. The Co2 produced by these wild fires was equal half our emissions for the year here in Australia - Almost 200m Tonnes. These wild fires demonstrated to the developed world at large the immense perils we are in due to Climate Change. It highlighted the reality that it is not just island nations, or people in foreign lands who will be affected by this, we cannot disassociate from this, we are all in this together and it affects us all.”

This pandemic should serve a s a global wake up call: We are all one species. We are all vulnerable to a tiny virus, we are all likewise vulnerable to the ravages of climate change. We remain hopeful, because good people like you are willing to advocate for positive change right now. “
