On Monday, French President Emmanuel Macron will launch a "call for mobilisation" on the Amazon during a meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York.
The fires that burned through the Amazon rainforest last month sparked international outcry and offers of help, but as world leaders meet in New York, the planet's largest rainforest remains engulfed in flames.
The latest satellite data from Brazil's National Institute for Space Research shows 131,600 fires burning since January within the country, where 60 percent of the Amazon lies.
The fires, which are mostly caused by humans with the goal of clearing land for farming and cattle ranching, are having a grievous effect on the forest: the rate of deforestation in the Amazon has nearly doubled since far-right President Jair Bolsonaro came to power on 1 January, with the equivalent of 110 football fields of land being cleared every hour.
