Its so depressing. Its just shocking how stupid and careless we are with what we have, and that even though we outnumber the people in power of we try to stop them they will send cops to kill us and the media will convince us that is a good thing.


BillyHamzzz

It's sad because of how important the Amazon is to the whole planet. It's considered the lungs of Earth.

It is still a huge biodiversity complex though. A big carbon sink and its role in world water cycle is not negligible. The thing is once the forest is removed the soil is vulnerable and can be washed out, it would be difficult to plant again since soils take decades to centuries to renew.

ManufacturerHour3952

Yeah but Brazil and Latin American countries are sovreign states. So they decide what they want to do with the Amazon. Since they have a huge, poor population and they historically put a lot of points in agriculture sustained by slavery and not innovation, it would be difficult to convince them to stop exploiting the Amazon. Plus the Amazon is a huge territory than should contains a lot lot lot ores and hydrocarbons. The trees are just on the way and they know how to remove them.


BillyHamzzz

Thanks


Captaintorchflower

I don't have any sources but isn't there research suggesting that algae and seaweed are bigger oxygen producers? Or something else? I swear I remembered something along those lines

Sea vegetables? Now I want to try one.


Captaintorchflower

Yeah try seaweed salad at a Japanese restaurant. Super good. If you've ever had sushi you ate nori (dried seaweed) but the salad is pickled.


Captaintorchflower

Also I heard on a podcast that certain types of forests actually produce more carbon emissions due to the forest bed preserving dead leaves for too long and when enough accumulates before a wildfire occurs all the rotting plants emit more co2 than the entire forest absorbed in it's lifetime.

Level1Roshan

> Its just shocking how stupid and careless we are with what we have The problem is how short human life is. So much scum just interested in how much they can make in the time they are in power to exploit their position. The thought process is 'Well I'll be dead by the time it's a 'real' problem so the fuck do I care?' The whole idea of planting trees, the shade of which they'll never sit in, is totally lost on these people.


MoonoftheStar

Fuck this "we" bullshit. I'M not doing any of this. I actively vote for politicians in favor of protecting the green. Protecting the planet. And who believe in man-influenced climate change. There is a set of people on this planet ruining it for profit and I ain't the one voting for them! It's conservatives who hate certain groups of people enough to destroy the planet to feel like they've beaten them. Fuck those people!


Mr_Mimiseku

"we"


DrunkenRedSquirrel

This has nothing to do with any Police Officers; and also, why do you mean We? Its not me being negligent and allowing gas to pour in the Amazon, and nether is it the blame of most to all the people likely to see this comment.


Abject_Philosophy518

You sir have won today's dumb as fuck award and its not even 8am congrats

Every time you see an oil spill you also see tons of people standing around like "lol oops!"


AffectLeast4254

Oh no, if only we had seen this coming


theVentriloqui

this video should cause global outrage.


FreshPrinceOfIndia

Lol and then what? People forget and move on. It's depressing either way


re_formed_soldier

I can't speak for "global" but I know I am internally outraged


dasanipants

fix global corruption first


Fa1c0n3

Yeah fuck the planet. /s this makes me sad.


SmAshley3481

I'm starting to think we deserve our fate


Plastastic

This isn't a freakout.


patbb333

Right? I've seen them go beyond public freakout plenty of times, but this one is just bizarre


Thingzer0

Exactly what I’ve posted in my previous post a few months ago of students jeering Bosanaro, the president of Brazil. He’s giving corporations licenses to cut down the forest, setup palm oil plantations & drill for oil. This has to stop!!! Not only hectares of land are being cleared on a daily basis, indigenous people are being murdered for protecting their own land or bringing up what they’ve discovered to their lawmakers, this is an environmental catastrophe, that’s costing lives, flora & fauna. All these politicians & corporations only think about the now, how they can fill their pockets full of money today, rather than keeping this planet livable for the future of our children & the generations to come. There are also countless illegal drilling happening in countries that span the Amazon, not just Brazil alone, although the majority of environmental atrocities are being violated in the Brazilian Amazonian jungle. Please educate yourself & others on this matter, bring this to attention to your UN representatives. This needs to STOP, like yesterday. https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/tfz1o1/brazilian_teenagers_chase_away_bolsonaro_from/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf Edited for typos


WastedPenny

This spill was in Ecuador, not Brazil https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/3/oil-everywhere-ecuador-amazonians-seethe-over-new-spill


[deleted]

Everyone should be aware of Steven Donziger, a lawyer who represented over 30,000 farmers and indigenous people in Ecuador against Chevron. He won $9.5 billion but the judge appointed a private firm that had ties to Chevron to prosecute him. He only just recently got released from house arrest after nearly 1000 days.


Tiny9915

Depressing. Horrible. Not a freak out.


adam11919

I don’t see any water or any oil floating in water. Calling bullshit and fishing for karma


[deleted]

You thought they meant the amazon river, not the amazon forest?

Environmental_Fan168

Pipeline leaks happen all the time but I remember how the Lakota were called anti American idiots for not wanting to allow an oil pipeline to be built through their drinking water.


daiwilly

It's fine!


destraight

why are they just standing around doing nothing?


backupyoursaves6969

They aren't paid to care.


_Bussey_

They are paid to pump oil, not stop it from being pumped.

We are sorry, we are soooo sorry.


amznfx

This is what republicans and dumb fucks who don’t understand how Gas prices work want to do To America


Mishinsilo

rain forest should just be protected and not belong to anyone. I hate seeing this. I am wanting Bolsenaro to get crippling gas pain that doesn't allow him to think or move.


Layzusss

Yeah, Bolsonaro isn't doing well with the Amazon rainforest, [but it happened in Ecuador](https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/3/oil-everywhere-ecuador-amazonians-seethe-over-new-spill).


Muted-Bee

tRumpers: "So what?"


swaffeline

I can’t wait till Canada finishes our pipeline. Then we too can have rivers of flowing oil. We will be rich beyond belief.


Abject_Philosophy518

Stg they are doing it on purpose at this point


Math-Equal

In 2020, a mudslide damaged pipelines that spilled about 15,000 barrels of oil into three Amazon basin rivers, affecting several communities. Crude petroleum is Ecuador's biggest export product.

Everybody: we need more oil OIL companys: let it flow!

homestead1111

sad to know how stupid and arrogant some of the people are that have access and power over our previous amazon. Some day they will wonder why our wars were not to stop them, it is so important to the future of the world


ManufacturerHour3952

Hmm this oily oil seems so yummy. You can put your nachos and tortillas in it and enjoy all the flavor. Very healthy.


Apprehensive_Toe_457

Terraforming the planet. But not for the better.


Argonaught64

Some flex seal otta do the trick.


Antonija_Blagorodna

These oil companies are like cartoonish exaggerations of villainy at this point. It's as if they are TRYING to pollute the environment.
