Title: Wanna buy yerself the Amazon Forest, just use Facebook Post by: paxmao on February 26, 2021, 08:27:44 PM Apparently, parcels in Brazilian Amazonia are now for sale.. on Facebook ads (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-56168844). The largest are several futbol fields in size. This has been pointed out by some local leaders that actually live on those parcels in the State of Rondia, well deep into the continent
Quote "One man, called Alvim Souza Alves, was trying to sell a plot inside the Uru Eu Wau Wau indigenous reserve for about £16,400 in local currency. It is the home to a community of more than 200 Uru Eu Wau Wau people. And at least five further groups that have had no contact with the outside world also live there, according to the Brazilian government." I wonder how do they target the audience? Perhaps people who search for "destroying Earth" o "I hate trees" o "kill legally"?

It would be surprising if it were, selling indigenous reserves and protected areas. The problem is that the people who buy then take possession of the space as if the purchase were legal and the government seems to turn a blind eye on it.
I wonder how do they target the audience? Perhaps people who search for "destroying Earth" o "I hate trees" o "kill legally"? But no, that's not what they type, according to the article " "forest", "native jungle" and "timber"" are the search terms.
