Brazil's presidential runoff between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Jair Bolsonaro is being framed as a decisive moment for the Amazon rainforest. Commentators argue that whoever wins will set deforestation policy at a critical juncture, with Bolsonaro's tenure associated with rising forest loss and Lula promising stronger environmental enforcement. Environmental writers say the outcome could shape the rainforest's survival.
Why now: The Brazilian election runoff is imminent, and its outcome is expected to directly determine future Amazon deforestation policy.
