    It should be a Global Concern,
    With world coordinating and flying
    those water planes that dump water
    to put the fires out ASAP. It's that 
    important.

    If there were a pat answer, smarter folks than we would have come up with it by now. 

    Frankly, even if we waved a magic wand and put the fires out now, it may not make much difference. 
    Time we as a species honestly faced up to the bleakness of our situation.

    There are no smarter folks than we. They just ain't listening to us. We have here the cream of the crop and nobody listens to us. Very frustrating.

    If only that were true.

    (But then again, how scary would THAT be?)

    Water bombers and lots of them, pronto. Spare no expense. The lungs of our planet are burning. You can't breathe money.

    I fully support a violent overthrow of the Jair Bolsonaro government.
    His policies have greatly exacerbated this ecological disaster.
    Nothing will be accomplished with him still in power

  • Treat it like other disaster relief efforts. 

    Dispatch people, equipment & money to match needs on the ground.

    To stop the illegal burning and making new farmland - a couple of platoons, plenty of food and ammo, and non restrictive Rules of Engagement.  Aka shoot the Jerks
