Fans of K-pop boy band BTS have raised online awareness on the ongoing fires in the Amazon rainforest in Brazil.“And we can save so much more than Amazon. Let’s start saving the whole planet Armys! #ARMYHelpThePlanet,” one BTS fan posted on Twitter.
According to Brazil’s Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais , the country’s space research center, from Jan. 1 to Aug. 21 this year, it has detected 75,336 fires in the country.“Pls Save our green lungs, save animals and plants and also save us #PrayforAmazonas #ARMYHELPTHEPLANET,” a fan wrote. “People don’t care until it’s needed and that decision will end up killing us. The trees will burn down, the water will turn undrinkable, our sources of food will disappear, and only then will people realize you can’t buy back the planet.One fan posted, “Please don’t destroy the living environment, please listen to the moans out there. #ARMYHelpThePlanet #AmazonRainforest #PrayforAmazonas .”
Another said, “I really think the @BTS_twt ARMY needs to do a mass donation to help fight the fire in the Amazon. #ARMYHelpThePlanet perhaps to @AmazonTeamOrg. That’s what I’m going to do. #PrayforAmazonia.”The New York Times reported that since Bolsonario took office last January, the Amazon area under Brazil “has lost more than 1,330 square miles of forest cover.”
“The deforestation of the Amazon is spiking as Mr. Bolsonaro’s government pulls back on enforcement measures like fines, warnings and the seizure or destruction of illegal equipment in protected areas,” it reported.
