Well, well, well. Reminds me of the old adage, “don’t get your medical advice from the pages of the NY Times.”
They were showing aerial videos on the MSM news this morning. You could tell the fires were burning grass, not forests.
Pfffffttttttt! More climalarky! I saw for a fact on Mrs rktman’s FB page some pictures from the amazon so we therefore know it’s true. And, as nuzzlin’ joe said, truth over facts. /SSSSSSS
I love all the facebookies virtue signaling over it too.
Especially the female ones.
They’re so deep, look how much they care about the forest and the rabbits and orangemanbad.

I knew this was a load of crap from the outset.
Thats because, THERE IS NO RAIN FOREST
It was all cut down back in the late 1990s , when the Fake News told us how the Evil US was cutting down the equivalent of 50 football fields a day of rainforest, and it would all be gone in 10 years.
We killed 1000,000 undiscovered species ( never understood that ) of creatures and plants that held the cure for all sickness, but evil capitalists cut the whole damn thing down. /s

I just read a meme that said that US farmers cultivating corn put more oxygen into the atmosphere than three Amazon Rain forests.
The fire also drives out the rats and poisonous snakes...........
Once the fires are done, the sugar plants send in their workers who cut down the cane stalks by hand with their machetes........
