Brazil is "seeing a record number of fires this year" and many of them were "started by cattle ranchers who are using them to clear pasture," Washington Post's Brazil Correspondent Marina Lopes says.

Full Lopes: Amazon Wildfire Will Be Discussed At G-7 Emergency Meeting | MTP Daily | MSNBC
Trump at G7: (Trump voice) there’s no fire in the Amazon. It’s fake news made by the fake news media. Amazon is still taking advantage of our great postal service. It’s should be G8! I want Russia in G8.
Trump won’t be there..
Ho, My gosh! What are we doing for our world, Money , Power are destroying everything bit by bit without we are realize it. You can’t even take Money and Power with you when you die. Sad.
They should rake the rainforest floor to stop the fire like they do in Finland.
6 degrees of Trump in 3…2…1…
horrible horrible !!! fires caused by greedy humans killing innocent animals !
Killing us also
Trees will grow back & then animals will eventually migrate back.
Trump will blame the people for not raking the Amazon floor .
He’ll skip that part of the G7 for nap time.
MSNBCannibals probably started this fire as a false flag to bring TRUMP INDUCED GLOBAL WARMING discussion so that US citizens are carbon taxed.. BUT NOT CHINA!! MSNBCannibals want the USA to be at a disadvantage because MSNBChina works for CHINA
Gibberish.
Idiota !
BTW, wildfires are very good for the soil , here in Florida we have controlled burns to actually help the forests out .. charcoal has immense surface area and this biologically helps the microbes and cation exhange which is needed for plant growth .. MSNBCannibals always trying to dupe the public with their evil propaganda
And I’m calling you trump btw…

Great news for palm oil companies…. Not for anyone or anything else.
#BalsonarosHenchmenLightfires for their Greed !
Yes, let’s wait and think, discuss, debate while it burns. When it’s gone it will be bubbye for us eventually.
Maybe after it’s done, we’ll apply a carbon tax to prevent further fires.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qy0B_lhspQk MSNBC, you are not highlighting what a crisis this is, and what a catastrophe it could quickly turn into. Please do better
Discussed so meaning in the mean time it can burn
Please folks, eat less meat.
Much less meat.
Livestock farming is the primary driver for deforestation.
77% of agricultural land is used for livestock and produces a measly 17% of calories. Crop-based foods are 16 (sixteen) times more productive than livestock by land use. If we cut our meat consumption in half, we would save 50% of our agricultural land use AND have more than enough food. It’s a no brainier. 👍🌱
