If Bolsonaro were still in charge I'd be concerned but Lula is an advocate of indigenous communities so I'm not as worried. There is still plenty of corruption and schemers who will poach land but they won't have a bright green light like they would have before Lula was elected.
- fijiaarone 3y agoIndigenous communities would rather grow wheat and raise cattle and sell timber than pose in grass skirts and lip rings for exploitive camera crews.
- matheusmoreira 3y agoYou should be more concerned now. Deforestation is a lot higher now with Lula in power. He's also making moves that sideline the environmental agenda. Ironic, isn't it?
- uoaei 3y agoSource? Sibling comment has an article that says the opposite. And anyway, the Amazon is huge so land poachers are hard to detect and catch in real time. It's much more likely that poachers feel a time crunch that wasn't as tight under Bolsonaro since he gave them free rein.

Haven't found good english sources newer than 2020. Sibling article you mentioned says nothing about amazon deforestation. It's about indigenous people's land rights.
- pelasaco 3y agoLOL. Wake up dude. Lula and Bolsonaro are both different sides from the same coin. Lula just does his demagogy, while knowing the Parlament will block such laws: https://www.npr.org/2023/05/31/1179168180/brazil-indigenous-land-law-protest https://www.npr.org/2023/05/31/1179168180/brazil-indigenous-...
- uoaei 3y agoFaacinating. You've linked to an article that shows Lula is acting in accordance with Indigenous demands, and that the Senate is the one limiting their land rights. But then you say Lula is the problem. Sounds like unfounded scapegoating to me.
- pelasaco 3y agoI guess you know nothing about Politics, specially in South America, so i will translate it to you. Lula knows the senate, he knows that there is no way this would be approved, but doing as he did, people like you would believe he wanted to change anything. He has other instruments to change it, if he really wanted. This is simply virtue signaling. Why trust the internet dude? Marina Silva, a strong person in the ecology sector, is probably leaving the government, because of Lula decisions: https://www-estadao-com-br.translate.goog/politica/apos-reuniao-lula-marina-confirma-permanencia-ministerio-elogia-lula-pela-cop-30-nprp/?_x_tr_sl=pt&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp https://www-estadao-com-br.translate.goog/politica/apos-reun... "Still during a trip to the G-7, in Japan, Lula had already signaled that he could contradict Marina regarding Ibama's refusal to grant a license for Petrobras to drill oil deposits at the mouth of the Amazon River. The project put the head of the Environment on a collision course with the Minister of Mines and Energy, Alexandre Silveira , as shown by Estadão"
