The massive fire which has broken out in the Amazon is continuing to spread and worse news breaks in, as Brazil's president Jair Bolsonaro stated that the country lacks the resources to fight the raging fire. Environmentalists believe that Jair's encouragement of deforestation has played a major role and have called for wealthy donors to fund the fire relief efforts, saving the forest which provides Earth's 20% oxygen.
