Amazon Soy Farms Are Literally Suffocating Locals

Did you know soy farming in the Brazilian Amazon isn’t just about deforestation? Locals are literally struggling to breathe because of all the herbicides being sprayed—some even have to hide indoors during spraying, and it’s so bad it’s causing anxiety attacks. On top of losing their land, people are being forced out by these health risks. Conservation efforts are helping, but this is a wild reminder that what’s on our plates can have real-life consequences far away. #Science #Amazon #SoyFarming
