Please don’t give Lula credit. Let’s just remember that his party was in power for 16 of the past 20 years and in those 16 years there has been plenty of deforestation of the Amazon.
There are no Saint in this. From politicians, to farmers , to consumers in Europe and North America . Every one is green , but every one also want some Brazilian Hard Wood for their decks and cheap meat for food . Meat needs grains and grains need more and more land to be produced.

To grow soybeans you need land, guess where new land comes from, the Amazons. Most deforestation are from farmer for grazing land and old grazing land becomes soy land
