The consequences we are seeing include poisoning by toxic gases
The fire that raged in the southern Brazilian Amazon and the Cerrado is the largest environmental disaster ever seen in this country. The Amazon - the largest continuous tropical forest contained in a single country - holds the highest levels of biodiversity in the world. And the Cerrado, the second largest Brazilian vegetation, now reduced to 20% and home to the largest river basins of South America, is suffering the neglect of the government and Brazilian society.
Only the state of Mato Grosso had a 840% increase in the rate of fire if we compare the data from August 2009 to August 2010.
Meanwhile, the canvass of the Lula government is rife, painting the progress in his government of "pink" and great deeds. No provision of long-term and effective range is taken to tackle the fire disaster.
The consequences we are seeing include poisoning by toxic gases, endangering the health of thousands of people that crowd the clinics, deaths from accidents involving workers and employers unprepared irresponsible, the paralysis of the economy of whole cities, like Marcelândia / MT and the subsequent government spending to recover these cities, the loss of soil fertility, which kills the microorganisms responsible for fertilization.
The revolt of the law-abiding citizens who inhabit the southern Amazon and the Cerrado region is simply ignored by the government of this country.
Some factors explain this disaster. Government agencies are still issuing license to burn after the first rain. That should be utterly abolished, as it is in some Brazilian states, because this attitude creates the idea that the fire is accepted by the authorities, when the rulers should end the use of fire and educate the population. We also have the effect of Aldo Rebelo - the so-called "rural community" - who want to create a climate of laxity of environmental regulations and that in the end will give a "knack" for laws that they want change.
There are also those who use fire, criminal or "license" to clean pastures, sugar cane plantations, settlements, forest clearing, and household backyards. The arsonists and Agrarians, enemies of parks and protected areas, taking advantage of the election year to unload all his anger against the units of conservation, whether federal, state or Private Reserves of Natural Heritage (RPPNs) with a simple lighting of a match. To make matters worse, this has been the driest year in recent memory, as predicted by the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), and for which the government was not prepared, preventing the hiring of brigades, being an election year. Added to all this and the lack of police surveillance in the municipalities, the lack of forest brigade. The Fire Department units serve only the cities, when it exists in the interior of Brazil.

Meio Ambiente
Dry throat, nose bleeds
Gray dominates the urban landscape
Everyone knows what will happen and nothing is done to stop
Ozone fades
The heat increases
Pollution is destroying
The human being is killing
The seas are dying
Flowers disappearing
Extinct animals
The human kicking

Nature
Every night the people slept,
And in the morning the crow sings.
Birds and fish make merry,
In city schools and give speeches.
Nature is beautiful,
Too bad nobody's leash.
Beautiful land of greatness,
Thank you O my nature.
Green fields,
Come thrush.
And we were those corners,
Here and there.
In the Araguaia River,
It has beautiful beaches.
And also the trees,
Where can I find happiness.
In the Cerrado in Goiás,
Is the sky indigo.
It changes from year to year,
At the heart of Brazil.
