Too bad supporting Brazil is the opposite of supporting the Amazon rainforest...

We don't just depend on the oxygen from the Amazon. We depend on its capacity to absorb CO2.
This is why animal agriculture is so destructive. It requires ever more land, meaning catastrophic deforestation and habitat destruction. There is no bigger cause of deforestation than farming animals.

Remember the beginning of Flash Gordon where Ming presses buttons to cause massive natural disasters on Earth? This is what the fossil fuel industry and animal agriculture industry have been doing to us for decades.
