A Prayer for Brazil, and the Fires
Date: 24 August, Saturday
Time: 7AM New York, 12PM London, 7PM Beijing, 9PM Sydney
Location: Chatroom 2 - the Lounge

Theme: The fires in Brazil are pretty crazy right now.
Of course - our prayers and thoughts aren't going to magically put the flames out: but we can at least acknowledge the severity of the issue, and what this represents to us as a species, as a whole.
We can definitely work with the planet, to get all that we need.
And it's a bit hypocritical to say to Brazil to stop plundering their natural resources; when our own countries have done the same.
It's not about telling people what to do. It's about realising that we've all benefited from the Plunder; and that things have to change, as a collective, if we want to show respect to the Earth.
There's enough fish, without overfishing.
There's enough farmland, without deforestation.
But hey: that's only my perspective.
We all have different views on the economics.
But let us offer our best thoughts to the fires in the Amazon currently.
Namaste.
