CHANGES IN NATURE

The Amazon is suffering a serious environmental catastrophe right now. Last August, 2.5 million, hectares. were burned, according to estimates by Brazil´s National Institute for Space Research (INPE). Amazon States have already declared an emergency situation. Instead of curbing this tragedy, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is encouraging practices that are prodeforestation and against the environment. On August 10 and 11, farmers around a main road in the Amazon publicly celebrated a "day of fire" to deforest with fire and clear the way for soybean plantations and cattle ranching. this resukted in a 300% increase in fires in the area. it´s unforgivable.

Demand that Bolsonaro not destroy the Amazon and now aplly policies of zero deforestation.   . 

The global variation of the earth's climate is called climate change. This variation is due to natural causes and human action and occurs on all climatic parameters: temperature, rainfall, cloudiness, on a variety of time scales.  Rising temperatures have many consequences at other levels, such as weather extremes ( hurricanes, prolonged droughts, floods) sea level rise or change in weather patterns in certain areas. The biggest problem of accelerated climate change is that our societies are not prepared to take on the changes this may bring: m elting of the glaciers and snow-capped mountains that supply aqueducts, changes in the flowering and fruiting cycles of crop plants,  rises in sea levels where there is a large population living, greater occurrence and strength in rains, droughts, hurricanes, frosts and hailstorms in urban and rural areas among other phenomena that undoubtedly reduce our quality of life. IMPACT The effects of climate change are already being felt, and w...
