I remember a couple decades ago, there was a big complaint that “X number of acres or square kilometers/miles” of Amazonian rain forest was being cut down every day/month/year and that all of that virgin forest was being destroyed. Someone actually took the figures and calculated them and discovered that the numbers had to have been imaginary, because the ‘acres cut’ came to be about twice the land mass of north and south America, or some similar size.
