| You do realize the bulk of the deforestation going on is due to illegal activities, right? And that it's not just Brazil that's affected by it, right? And the 20% oxygen thing is bullshit. 5000 years ago the Brazilian rain forest did not exist. It was woodland with lush grass lands interspersed. Th... |

| There's nothing fake about the amount of fires this year or the fact the Bolsonaro DGAF about the rainforest. If anything, he's like Saruman in LotR when he sees Fangorn Forest as says, "Burn in down!" There's nothing fake about the global catastrophe that losing the Amazon will create. U... |

And before that, there was a military junta, the kind Bolsanaro is probably going to turn Brazil into.
It's also worth noting that the previous governments tried to curb the illegal deforestation in spite of their corruption.
Also. The Moonie Times? Do better. |

| The catastrophic loss of another fifth of Brazil’s rainforest could happen within one generation. It’s happened before. It’s happening now. THE RIVER BASIN at the center of Latin America called the Amazon is roughly the size of Australia. Created at the beginning of the world by a smashing of tecto... |

| The Presidency of Donald Trump Never Gets Any Less Absurd By Andrew Sullivan Absurd,” it turns out, is a trigger word for Trump, as it well should be. When the prime minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen, was asked to respond to the idea that Donald Trump wanted to “buy” Greenland, she found the m... |

| The Queen of Denmark invited him for a State visit. He cancelled. She's pissed. I recall the tradition of new US Presidents making their first State visit to Canada. But Obama changed that, with his first to Mexico and Second to Canada. I don't think Trump will have State visit to Canada, at all. A... |

| It’s Saturday morning and my father-in-law Gord is in town to help with our renovations, so I’ve gone to Tim Hortons to pick up coffee and something to eat. Right away you know that this story is at least partially crap. I’m a snooty food writer. So just like every politician stopping into Tim’s fo... |

| I’d be willing to bet that some of the “protestors” are consular officials and their families. If that were the case, the Canadian government could revoke their diplomatic papers and have them go back home. |

| Considering it was in the middle of a comedy bit, it was funny. Does someone actually think that people were false alarmed when the heard the tone? Instead of, you know, looking up at the tv and realizing that was in the middle of a show? |
