In the first six months of President Lula's term, deforestation in Brazil's Amazon declined by 33.6%, with a reported reduction from 3,988 sq km to 2,649 sq km compared to the same period in 2022 under President Bolsonaro. Although Lula aims to halt deforestation by 2030, the remaining deforested area, three times the size of New York City, poses a significant challenge. While the government reported a 41% drop in forest clearance in June, the rise in Amazon fires remains a concern, with 3,075 fires detected, the highest since 2007. Lula advocates for global funding to preserve the Amazon, vital in the fight against climate change.
