it was not bolsonaro who said burn amazon. but in the moment he fired the scientists who just came up with the figures about these burnings. this is a sign that you're allowed or you're entitled who who were there, to do whatever you want. in the moment bolsonaro said his policy of security, for example, is shoot people and shot people, whatever. if you're a criminal, you will be shot. we can say the mall security guard, the guy who is in the mall and he's a guy who basically needs to take care of people in the shopping malls, but now he's entitled to do whatever he wants. it happened to me recently in rio where i'm based. i was having a lunch with joel anderson from "the new yorker." he was there to write a profile of bolsonaro. we heard this noise. some guy was running, a black guy, and the policeman was running to catch him up. and then we realize what is happening. we're in there and we start to ask the police guy, what is happening here? the guy was yelling he's not a criminal, he works in the supermarket nearby. and then

bolsonaro's approval rating is below 80%. unlike lopez over door, we shall see -- lopez obrador, we shall see. won because of the collapse of the center in brazil and after 15 years of rule by widet, there was a very spread sense in brazilian society of rejection to the pt. my question is that center which scapegoaty ways, the for all of the feelings of brazil, corruption, do you see the possibility of rebuilding that center or is brazil condemned to a politics and polarization between the kind of bolsonaro type projects and return of the pt? this are athink clear response from the population about this weird or crazy bolsonaro behavior and statements. it is not something that we can attribute to economy or a political decision. it is something personal. this is something that i think we need because yes, we all here are talking about we are navigating in turbulent times learn or comed to up with new ideas and behaviors, but something that i think, i was thinking about when the president was talking, first of all we need to k

given the negative attitude of the new president, jair bolsonaro, the new president, jair bolsonaro.ew of the dark green edge of the reserve. farmland presses right up against it, and president bolsonaro says farmers should be allowed inside. in his view, indigenous people have too much land. his election heralded a right wing agenda, in favour of agriculture and of guns. he thrills his supporters with talk of opening up the amazon. since he came to office, bullets were fired at the sign marking the land of the uru—eu—wau—wau. tensions are escalating. up the road, we get talking to some localfarmers, and they say exactly the kind of things the president says, that the system of forest reserves for indigenous people is wrong, and that farmers need more land. with the president on their side, farmers and loggers feel a new freedom to clear trees. we found this vast area of bare earth and dead trunks, huge tracts of forest are being wiped out. my footsteps and distant birdsong are the only sounds. it is tragic to see this close—up. to bring these trees down to the ground, theyjust knock

translation: bolsonaro khan sayed thing is fine. he never spoke to us.f fine is different to us because he wants to destroy the forest, that's how he thinks. so this is not fine with us. as we fly over the rainforest, it's hard convey the extent of the damage we've seen. the lowest protected areas of the amazon are being mined atan alarming areas of the amazon are being mined at an alarming rate, their waterways polluted with mercury. and as president bolsonaro gears up to tell world leaders at the un that he has this situation under control, he's also legalising this activity. and, of course, it's notjust mining. a recent wildfire here burned 1600 football pitches of forest in four days, one of the world's last natural protections against climate change. daniel gutierrez and his tea m change. daniel gutierrez and his team decided to take matters into their own hands. a year ago they set up their own hands. a year ago they set upa their own hands. a year ago they set up a volunteer fire service. woefully under resourced, this year they have barely rested

what effect has there been from the election of president bolsonaro? that these guys here, these invaders, these land grabbers, they feel much more confident about what they are doing. and they feel that now they have the law on their side, and now they have, they can do whatever they want because our presidency will support them. so indigenous people in the forest, like the uru—eu—wau—wau now face a lot more pressure. so this is the forest of the uru—eu—wau—wau? i show them the view of space, of what they are experiencing everyday on the ground. with all this farmland all around you, and you are about there, just in that little corner. so you have farms, deforested land, right next to you. and while we are with them, we hear a very depressing fact. that the uru—eu—wau—wau have had such a troubled experience with the outside world, that to describe white people and invaders, they have just a single word. "tapuya" means invader but also white people. that is the only thing they knew. they didn't know there were white people who could be friends with the
