The Amazon rainforest in Brazil has experienced a high number of fires this year, with over 80,000 fires detected so far. Indigenous tribes' homes are being destroyed and millions of animal species are threatened. While some argue the fires are caused by human activities like land clearing, the president of Brazil claims they were set by NGOs in retaliation for funding cuts. These fires not only damage the environment but increase greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. Deforestation also affects rainfall patterns, biodiversity, agriculture and human health. To prevent further devastation, it is important that people take responsibility to prevent wildfires and allow forests to recover over many years. Caring for the environment is essential for human survival as it provides food,

The Amazon rainforest has been on fire in the past months, and the country of Brazil has declared a state of emergency in accordance to the problem. The fires are destroying the homes of indigenous tribes and threatening millions of animal species. One tribal chief described the halting response of Brazil's president, Jair Bolsonaro, regarding the fires, along with his support for deforestation, as a form of extermination. According to statistics, the number of fires in Brazil this year is the highest on record since 2013 and is up by 85% from last year alone. So far this year, more than 80,000 fires in the country have been detected by Brazil's space research. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration or commonly called as NASA predicted that “the Amazon rainforest is typically wet and humid, July and August the onset of the dry season are the region's driest months, with activity typically peaking by early September and stopping by mid-November.” But in my own perspective, these fire is caused by human in which it is used for clearing out lands for farming, reaching, and other human made activities. But in the reading it is said that their no solid evidence on what did the fire cause, so the president of Brazil Mr. Bolsanoro suggested that the fires were set by nongovernmental organizations in retaliation to funding cuts. Through this constant forest fires, I believe that it’s not just destroying our beautiful environment but also it contributes in increasing climate change. In which, as the number of fires increase, greenhouse gas emissions do too, that brings imbalance of temperature causing destructive phenomenon experience through time. In addition to that, increasing emissions, deforestation contributes directly to a change in rainfall patterns in the affected region, extending the length of the dry season, further affecting forests, biodiversity, agriculture and human health. To sum up, it is really a sad image to see a forest burning to ashes. Looking at the devastation caused by human-started forest fires, it’s important to imagine how huge of a role prevention plays. If everyone took the necessary steps to prevent wildfires, the rates of devastation would drop significantly. I believe that it is a vital for all people to take responsibility for preventing wildfires in Virginia and all across the continent. Forests can take dozens if not hundreds of years to recover from the damage done by fires. That why, following and knowing some tips on how to prevent forest fires such as, know your local regulations or go to seminars to gain knowledge on to and not to do when in a forest. Caring for the environment is the only the key for the human race to survive. Because it is where all the food that we ate, the water that we drink, and the materials that we use to make shelter. Keep in mind that the environment can survive without us but we human cannot survive without the environment. So let start caring to mother earth by doing things that complements our responsibility not just as humans but also as a protector of Earth
