As a certified fan of 2000s pop punk, I can most definitely vouch for the accuracy of this review.

the 2010s nearly over and i’m really still stuck in 2008 emo culture,,,, iconic

wEEZER AND PANIC! OH BOY OH BOY THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD

yep, that’s me lmao

Y'all. This is a fucking global emergency.

Some quick facts:

What is happening right now is an emergency that should be concerning all of us. The air we breath is at stake. This isn't exaggerating. Our lungs are destroyed as we speak and we are only just finding out.

This is our future. Are you upset about Spiderman? Same. Were you sad over Notre Dame? Same. But this is so much more important.

SPEAK UP. GET THIS KNOWN. Even if you can't do anything else, at least raise awareness to put some pressure out there on those who can do something. OUR HOME IS AT STAKE. The skies in Sao Paolo turned black. We are losing our most valued rainforest. WE CANNOT JUST SIT BACK.

If you’re struggling to figure out what to do, start with donating to these organizations:

The Rainforest Action Network

https://act.ran.org/page/11127/donate/2

The Rainforest Trust

https://www.rainforesttrust.org/

The World Wildlife Fund

https://www.wwf.org.uk/where-we-work/places/amazon

Keep spreading awareness, but also if you have ANY spare cash there has never been a more important cause to give it to!!!!!!

I probably don’t have to tell you to put public pressure on your governments as well!

For the idiots saying "fire is natural": these fires are purposely being set to clear the land so humans can make money off of it. These are man-made fires, and the forests will not be able to grow back where they are burning. It is essentially the same as selling one of your 4 lobes of your lungs for quick cash. If you can donate, even a dollar, I recommend the rainforest trust, which is buying up the land to keep it out of developers' hands.

**Edit: Many of you pointed out how the 20% oxygen phrase can be misleading (and many thanks, don't want to misinform). So, to clarify, it means that the rainforest provides us with an amount of oxygen that is then used by living organisms to survive. It is not a surplus, however; its carbon footprint is neutral because all this oxygen is used up. However, it remains essential, because, without it, we are left with less oxygen to sustain the organisms living now, which means some organisms will die. Also, without the forest, we will have fewer sources that absorb carbon dioxide, so greenhouse effects will be more pronounced. Many thanks for pointing this out.

HERE I WILL POST LINKS WITH WAYS TO HELP:

Many of these are donations, but not all. I am aware that some suggested ways are not linked to the crisis directly, but for the sake of a better lifestyle and because some of the damage cannot be undone, reading up cannot hurt.
