9,500 fires have started there just this week.

 

That doesn't sound like lightning strikes to me.

It might be helpful to those reading this thread to know where you read this.

We can read lots of stuff with a google search (and many contradictory, as you have seen with "they all said something different" 

 

Getting accurate and verified information is something else.

Thats why I think they don't know what has happened.

Everyone has a different story

Land clearing fires seems a very plausible explanation to me.

 

But how to stop it?  Brazil says it doesn't have the resources.  As it is a global threat, the world will need to combine forces to stop it.
