brazil stops the destruction if it's reinforced the what if i told you, is a country responsible for this was once great at fighting deforestation. in recent years, one man has become synonymous with destruction and the brazilian amazon former president charitable sonata, his large policies allowed scots of rain for us to be raised to the ground during the last 4 years. amazon was a place to go to, but it wasn't always dispatch, in fact, because it was once good at protecting it's for it's the country previously reduced deforestation in the amazon by 80 percent over the course of 8 years. this downward trend started in the early 2000. those under president leads the now to let us do
7:32 pm
the most just on is lula. and now both of mattel is out and louis back. the brazil has changed dramatically in the last decades. so will the country be able to combat deforestation again? here's the thing. what brazilian politicians decide to do with fair part of the amazon concerns us all even is supposed to matter, says the amazon is ours, not yours. of course, the most affected are the millions of people living there and the hundreds of thousands of plant and animal species. but the amazon also plays a vital role in absorbing enormous amounts of seo to that keeps the gas from heating the address here and making seems like these more and more common around the world is uh, the 1st 4 clean may change, but should they flotas gene amazon, we are destroying our buffer. that is a silly, raging degree makes change. they stream events. this is lucille, my god. she's
7:33 pm
a senior researcher with results national institute for space research. she found out the amazon has been destroyed to such an extent that it's now emitting more carbon than it takes. and that's partly because the fire is used to clear the forest relief tons of it. please window is stopping immediately. this process where you will lose a discharge of your muscle forward, it should become the shipping point. okay, that sounds depressing. i promise we're getting to the solutions. but 1st we need to understand what has allowed us to the 4th, 17 percent of the presenting amazon. here's a clue, it's a money maker, and this goes all the way back to the 19 seventy's. at that point, the reinforced was largely untouched. but the military regime that was in power per student agendas, nationalism and economic development, it decided exporting its biggest forest was the way to boost preserves economy or
7:34 pm
the military in brazil, the port seeing the region as a reason to be cold courage level is the president of the institute, we got a bad, a filtering specialist and climate and security issues. and the government was paying for people to go to the amazon and amazingly, say, whatever you can do as far as will be yours. the reason that this to convince people to settle in a forest is considered to be uninhabited. of course, there were indigenous communities there. it built a mass of highway to make it easier to navigate across the amazon and incentivized brazilians to move their to lock for timber and raise cattle. over the coming decades these businesses proved to be very lucrative, especially because more, more people were eating meat around the world and farmers needed lots of protein rich story to feed their livestock. so the rain forest had to continue making space for cattle pastures and switching off, and his last became stricter. land clearing also happened to legally,
7:35 pm
but then in 2003, it came a turning point lula took office as president at a time when deforestation was sore and cheer pointed. administer medina, silver? who really put the reinforced on the agenda with a men success from 2004 to 2012 deforestation. and the amazon, it went down by 80 percent. there are 3 major components to make this happen. first, a mass of expansion of protected areas. the administration added millions of hector is to be preserved by 2010 more than 40 percent of the amazon was officially under protection. these areas include conservation units and indigenous territories. designating new indigenous territories was especially important because they've been shown to preserve the forest very successful. the visuals community hadn't been managing just so it's a very simple sentence. this is a video and a homeless. she coordinates the n g o institute to see i'm being taught, which focuses on environmental and indigenous rights. so the way initials,
7:36 pm
people and other traditional commitments deals with the floors as well, makes the forest more sense for us. in general, all the new protections worked as a huge deterrent because once you have a protective area stations, that's why we'll make money with that black. ringback will as but that doesn't mean people could be forest, all they want it in unprotected areas. here land owners could only farm on 20 percent of their territories. and to ensure this, the government ramped up its monitoring. it improved its satellite system to detect deforestation in real time and to give better training to environmental authorities and law enforcement to crack down on illegal activities. the final step was to tackle the supply chains. this only became a talking point to, to pressure from civil society cream cheese had published studies linking deforestation in the amazon to so in the spot by major food companies, the public outcry paid off. it resulted in the swim or a tory and the beef moratorium. voluntary agreements between big food producers to
7:37 pm
stop buying these goods from new lead forested areas. the sewing more, a tory was especially successful. it's estimated to have saved 18000 square kilometers for us over a decade. you might wonder how does this affect the economy and the amazon? well, it's still kept growing. agricultural production actually went up as deforestation decrease. that's because farmers were not using the rolanda efficiently before and pastors offer remained empty. soon they were forced to plant crops and some of these under use pastures and stock more cattle on them. if this all sounds too good to be true, it's because it was around 2013 deforestation rates started climbing again. during a time of political turmoil, to get rid of allies of the every business had pushed to weaken the laws protecting forest and big infrastructure projects were creeping into the amazon to select those hydro electric them approved by none other than lulu. he said it was
7:38 pm
necessary for preserves energy supplies, but it was in 2019 that things really started looking back for the rain forest show you both on added to the office and his far right platform included lots of anti environment rhetoric. so the, those environmental people, if i can, i will, can find them the amazon one day since they liked the environment. so much. remember the paradigm from the 1970s that the 4th thing was key to boosting the economy. a came back full, so not a publicly pushed for more mining and indigenous territories. and his administration region, the environmental enforcement agencies shrinking their budgets and pushing up stuff . this created a climate of impunity that's really open to space for the cultural evasion of the criminal activities that were already there. but then that were coupled with much more organized criminal networks, much more resources from all of the really sits economy. the legal destruction of the amazon increasingly became part of sophisticated networks, traffic in drugs,
7:39 pm
guns and laundering money. as a result, deforestation rates sort over the next 4 years. it's really searching europe and serve until monday. cheese, well king sized or to ge equipment. the sonata was not re elected to be done with a razor thin margin in 2022. and one of the 1st things you did was go to the you and kind of talks and announce google it up to you. brazil is back to meet at least 10 more law enforcement into the fuel to stop loggers and land grabbers. in january 2023. deforestation was already down 61 percent on the same month the year before. but that doesn't mean it will be an easy task presented has changed a lot so. so look for us to office 20 years ago. used to be shutting down. no doubt . this is a dwanda, viola from the university of some fall. she's referring to a set of new challenges like rebuilding all the institutions, both on that as the administrator and dismantled the description of the people that
7:40 pm
are taking offices that they found. what this i'm think of a lot of in terms of the lack of information of, of, you know, the, the history of what happened the, the level of public servants that asked to, to leave. the good news is that louis former environment administer has agreed to come back, but now her ministry will face a reinforce, eroded beyond recognition, filled with sprawling criminal networks and illegal lining strips for their planes . another hurdle will be to cancel the powerful agri business lobby for the presidency. she doesn't necessarily have congress on his side peaceful issues of the same. what if i read an activities in the amazon are much more strong or lead the guy at the low cost of living and the state the labor is done the way of doing the sort of pre of seen in the past. but they're capable of getting laws weekend, and the industry will continue having this political influence, as long as the prophets of the rock at high demand for brazilian agriculture. their words are teaching amazon as a b, as
7:41 pm
a sigh of been as a people pleaser stopped by this to help us. these challenges are real and they're significant. but louis administration also faces a set of opportunities, the opportunity to improve land productivity and former efficiently to blue screen economies that use the regents resources without depleting them or cutting down trees. that includes commercializing were products native to the forest, an eco tourism a brazil can also share its knowledge and successes with other force giants like indonesia or the democratic republic of congo. so i hope we go back to the world seen not only as a green fowler, but as a generous lot that will bring others along. this step is crucial because we may not be able to put a price tag on saving or rain for us. but we will pay the price if we don't.
7:42 pm
