  • also, apparently a lot of the photos being shared on social media are from other fires.

    ..sorry what's your point here?
    You do not approve that some people mistakenly illustrate the situation with a photo that's not from 2019 but from 2018 or something?

  • Stuff like this can be jumped on to question the validity of a story by certain folk with certain agendas, see Brazils pres. Accuracy of reporting can be important in that respect to ensure the story is the story and not the validity of the story coz someone used a stock image!

  • My point here is that people should do a little fucking due diligence before getting on the hype train and opening themselves up to potential counter claims from climate change deniers who will use any reason to discredit their posts.

    Also some of the photos aren't from the Amazon so....easier to claim fake news.

    I am not saying its not important for it to be raised or that more people talking about it is a bad thing.
