That chart is to 2015, not 2019 (as the lying Ryan so claims). It also only references clear cutting and fires due to conversion of land to agricultural purposes. It doesn’t talk to wild fires due to drought. Also, the current concern is over the recent jump in deforestation in the Amazon, thanks to new policies promoting it in Brazil. There are 80% more fires this year than last year.
