A protestor participates in a march for climate justice and against wild fires affecting the entire country in Sao Paulo, Brazil, on September 22, 2024. Forest fires have been raging for several weeks in Brazil, particularly in the Amazon rainforest in the north and in the vast Pantanal region, consuming millions of hectares of forest. While fueled by extreme drought, which the government says serves as "a demonstration of the gravity of climate change," many of the fires were set by "criminals," in the words of environment minister Marina Silva.
