Description:
This image is an appeal to the whole world. Brazil has had almost 160,000 fires this year, out of control due to drought, lack of rain and arson. Brazilian fauna and flora are dying. The sun usually at this time has a redish color, similar to blood, although it normally has a yellow tone, associated with a grayish sky, due to the large amount of smoke in the city of São Paulo. This phenomenon causes a reflection, reducing the sun's rays, filtering some colors. [*] [*]According to the NGO MapBiomas, it shows that, between 1985 and 2020, the area burned in Brazil in this period is more than 1.6 million square kilometers, equivalent to approximately 20% of the Brazilian territory.
