    The song was written as a vehicle for environmental activism, with launching a fundraising effort on behalf of Brazil’s indigenous tribes. Infrastructure, farming, mining, logging-- is destroying the Amazon. These Amazonian wildfires are a human-made disaster, set by loggers and cattle ranchers who use a “slash and burn” method to clear land. Feeding off very dry conditions, some of those fires have spread out of control.

Reducing the Amazon places more stresses op the system, and tipping points do exist. It's not as black and white as you are making it out to be.

    Can't go wrong with more Gojira. Since Lex loves Halloween so much how about a Halloween themed week or few days? Some creepy yet good metal like cradle of filth (her ghost in the fog) and Dimmu Borgir (Progenies of the great apocalypse). Fleshgod apocalypse, the violation is also very good. But watch original vids no lyrics versions.
