'We will do whatever it takes to have zero deforestation and degradation of our biomes by 2030,' says Brazil president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who set out his vision for the environment at COP27 yesterday
Lula said that level of destruction “will stay in the past”, promising to reverse Bolsonaro’s legacy by strengthening government agencies tackling deforestation. He also said he will create a “ministry of Indigenous and native peoples” to empower communities fighting to protect their forest.
The president-elect also announced a bid to host the COP30 climate summit in an Amazonian city in 2025, which would follow next year’s summit in the United Arab Emirates and 2024’s gathering in either Australia or the Czech Republic.
