Amazon fire increases crisis on Earth

in #environment5 years ago

The Amazon forest is spread over about 5.5 million square kilometers of the Amazon basin of South America, which is almost a half times larger than the area of ​​European countries. The Amazon forest is spread in nine countries (Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Guinea, Peru, French Guinea, Suriname and Venezuela), where about 39 million crores of trees and more than 16,000 species of plants are found. This is why they also make Amazon the largest forest in the world. It is also a destination for wildlife of species of elephant, giraffe, tiger, lion, rhinoceros etc.

The world's largest river flows through this world's largest forest, known as the "Amazon River". Amazonian forests spread over a vast area of ​​nine countries provide 20 percent oxygen to the world, due to which they are also called the lungs of the Earth, but the burning of the Amazon forest for more than a month has been avoided. Are seen and the future of the Earth is seen going to the ICU. In such a situation, the crisis on earth is also increasing.

In the second week of August there was a fire in the Amazon forests in Brazil, but the fire spread slowly and then the fire took a terrible form. The magnitude of the fire can be gauged from the fact that the Amazon fire can be seen from space and the European Space Agency has also shared the photos. Brazil's northern states of Roraima, Accre, Rondônia and Amazonia are badly affected by the fire. Seeing the fire rising, Brazil has declared an emergency.

The smoke emanating from the fire is also being seen in nine countries of South America. In Brazil, stifling smoke has disrupted life, but the government has failed to control the fire at the moment. According to NASA, the smoke of the Amazon fire is spreading to the Atlantic coasts and covers an area of ​​2800 square kilometers. Significantly, these are not the first incidents of fire in the Amazon forests. In the past, there has been a fire in the forest many times, but never the dreaded fire this year, but still we are relatively less sensitive towards the environment.

Actually life on Earth is not possible without oxygen. The life of every living organism including humans depends on oxygen. The forest of the Amazon alone produces 20 percent of the same oxygen present on Earth. It is also the world's ten percent biodiversity region. From this, the importance of the Amazon jungle can be gauged, but our erratic development bypassing nature has disturbed the balance of the earth, which has suffered the brunt of the present generation, and the future generation will also suffer.

We ignored the forests that gave life to the earth in the name of development, so that today the earth is on ICU and human life is on ventilator. Therefore it is necessary to save the earth to save human life and the forests to save the Earth. Every citizen will have to do this work considering his duty as an environment, only then we will be able to provide a secure future to the earth as well as the future generations.
