Mga artista naalarma sa sunog sa ‘Lungs of the Planet’

MANILA, Philippines — Pati ang mga local na artista ay naalarma na sa nagaganap na sunog sa Amazon rainforest sa Brazil.

Ang Amazon ang tinuturing na ‘lungs of the planet’ kaya naman nagpa-panic ang marami sa nangyayari. “Effects of damage to the Amazon go far beyond Brazil and its neighbors. The area’s rainforest generates more than 20% of the world’s oxygen and 10% of the world’s known biodiversity. The Amazon is referred to as “the lungs of the planet” and plays a major role in regulating the climate. The world would drastically change if the rainforest were to disappear, impacting everything from farming to the water we drink,” ayon sa https://www.cnet.com.

Marami ring nalulungkot na mas maraming nagka-interes nang masunog ang Notre Dame sa Paris. Ayon sa post ng @wwf_uk : “There was worldwide outcry when the Notre Dame cathedral was on fire. Why is there not the same level of outrage for the fires destroying the #AmazonRainforest?”
