Bollywood celebs like always have shown their concerns about this terrible loss to mother earth. Amazon forest which is referred to as Earth’s lungs is solely contributing 20% of oxygen states a report on BBC. The heavy smoke caused a daytime blackout more than 1,700 miles away in Brazil’s largest city São Paulo on Monday.

According to the BBC report, there have been 72,843 fires in Brazil this year, with more than half in the Amazon region, INPE said. That’s more than an 80% increase compared with the same period last year. The Amazon is often referred to as the planet’s lungs, producing 20% of the oxygen in the Earth’s atmosphere.

NASA said that “Although it is not unusual to see fires in Brazil at this time of year due to high temperatures and low humidity it seems this year the number of fires may be record-setting.”

Here’s how Bollywood celebs reacted on Amazon Rainforest fire

Richa Chadha

If the Amazon is on fire, the planet is on fire! We will all die soon… thanks to the corruption of selfish conglomerates and power… but they will distract us with wars and religion… and we get distracted, so we deserve to die… but why do we destroy other species? Humankind is foolish and self-destructive. And we’re fucked now, there’s no turning back.

Bipasha Basu

Terrifying to think that Amazon is the largest rain forest on the planet, creating 20% of the earth’s oxygen, basically the lungs of the world, has been on fire and burning for the last 16 days running, with literally NO media coverage whatsoever! Why? #amazonfire #prayforamazonas

Dia Mirza

Deniers of #ClimateChange we are being gutted by the fires caused by your denial! The Amazon forest, the lungs of our planet has been on fire for the last 16 days and more than 72000 fires have occurred already this year. When will world media give this more attention? #ClimateChangeIsReal #ActOnClimate #amazonia #amazonas”
