Abstract

This article brings the mapping of conversation networks that emerged on the social media Twitter in August 26, 2019, on the occasion of the increase in fires in the Amazon in relation to the same month of the previous year and which reached its peak on the eve of this date, which was published in the news and reached international repercussion. As behavior of these networks, it was concluded that the content of the debate was defined by identification with the values ​​defended by a few public figure profiles not linked to the environmental cause, confirming that, although the seriousness of the fact, these networks emerged in favor of the delimitation of the political space, thus compromising the access, by the users, of the in-depth information for understanding the subject. The methodologies used were Social Network Analysis (ARS) and Contingency Analysis.
