This post is a request for information, an attempt to use a social network to try to understand what's going on.
In recent days I have been aware of and following the news about the fires that are happening in Brazil's Amazon rainforest.
Out of curiosity, I went to NASA FIRMS to see the fires, as I do with a similar site in my country.
Much to my surprise, I find that a very large part of the African continent is on fire. I searched the web but can't find any media info about it.
Does anyone know what's happening? Or can you point me to news links about the fires in Africa?
Thank you!
