Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva 
made major moves to reverse the environmental 
course set by his predecessor, Jair Bolsonaro, 
including unveiling a plan to halt illegal 
deforestation in the Amazon and to set aside huge 
amounts of the rainforest for government protection.

“Brazil will once again become a global reference 
in sustainability, tackling climate change, and 
achieving targets for carbon emission reduction 
and zero deforestation,” Lula said on Monday.
Called the Action Plan for the Prevention and 
Control of Deforestation in the Amazon (PPCDAm), 
the plan will coordinate policy across more than 
a dozen Brazilian ministries. It calls for ending 
illegal deforestation by 2030 and achieving net 
zero deforestation, meaning just as much forest 
is being replanted as is cut down.

It will use satellite images to track criminal 
activity as well as to regularize land titles, 
and will create a rural registry to monitor 
correct forest management. It also aims to help 
degraded forests recover and increase the growth 
of native vegetation to undo some of the damage 
done by deforestation, which is driven in large part by cattle ranching.

The Brazilian Federation of Banks (Febraban) also 
announced that it would begin tying future lines 
of credit to Brazilian meat producers, including 
meatpackers and slaughterhouses, to environmental 
monitoring requirements. By the end of 2025, 
Brazilian meat companies that purchase cattle 
from Brazilian Amazon supplies will have to 
create a “traceability and monitoring system” for 
connections to illegal deforestation and the use of land in protected areas.

Febraban President Isaac Sidney said on Tuesday 
that banks “are at the center of [Brazil’s] 
supply chain” and that the move “will encourage 
actions to foster an increasingly sustainable economy.”
The financial sector “is aware of the need to 
advance in managing and mitigating social, 
environmental, and climate risks in business 
dealings with their clients, while also directing 
more resources towards financing the transition to the Green Economy,” he said.

Lula also announced that an Amazon reserve would 
be increased by 4,400 acres, and that another 140 
million acres of public lands without special 
protection would be allocated - an area roughly the size of France.
In late April, Lula announced the creation of six 
new indigenous reserves, banning mining and most 
farming operations there. The areas cover some 
1.5 million acres of the Amazon. Environment 
Minister Marina Silva said on Monday the 
government would begin the process of study 
toward creating more conservation units.

In addition, Lula also announced that Brazil, the 
world’s fifth-largest emitter of greenhouse 
gases, would commit to reducing carbon emissions 
by 37% by 2025 and 43% by 2030. The commitment is 
a substantial increase from the levels set by 
Bolsonaro, who retreated from prior commitments.
Roughly half of Brazil’s carbon emissions come 
from deforestation, which often uses a crude 
“slash and burn” method that pours carbon dioxide 
into the atmosphere. One recent estimate found 
that 800 million trees were felled in two years 
to make way for cattle ranching.

The 77-year-old left-wing president returned to 
office in January 2023 after defeating Bolsonaro 
in the presidential election. Lula was previously 
president from 2003 to 2010, part of the wave of 
left-wing governments that swept Latin America in 
what was called a “Pink Tide.” Since returning to 
office, Lula has set about reversing course on 
many of the right-wing Bolsonaro’s policies, 
including on the environment, and

new efforts to build economic and political 
systems not centered on Europe and North America.
The Amazon represents half of the planet’s 
remaining rainforest, and 60% of it sits inside 
Brazil’s borders. Scientists have said that 
preserving the dense forest is key to efforts to 
combat climate change and keep the planet from 
warming to a level that could be dangerous to humans.

"And I think, in the end, that is the best 
definition of journalism I have heard; to 
challenge authority - all authority - especially 
so when governments and politicians take us to 
war, when they have decided that they will kill 
and others will die. " --Robert Fisk

'From South America, where payment must be made 
with subtlety, the Bormann organization has made 
a substantial contribution. It has drawn many of 
the brightest Jewish businessmen into a 
participatory role in the development of many of 
its corporations, and many of these Jews share 
their prosperity most generously with Israel. If 
their proposals are sound, they are even provided 
with a specially dispensed venture capital fund. 
I spoke with one Jewish businessmen in Hartford, 
Connecticut. He had arrived there quite unknown 
several years before our conversation, but with 
Bormann money as his leverage. Today he is more 
than a millionaire, a quiet leader in the 
community with a certain share of his profits 
earmarked as always for his venture capital 
benefactors. This has taken place in many other 
instances across America and demonstrates how 
Bormann’s people operate in the contemporary 
commercial world, in contrast to the fanciful 
nonsense with which Nazis are described in so much “literature.”

So much emphasis is placed on select Jewish 
participation in Bormann companies that when 
Adolf Eichmann was seized and taken to Tel Aviv 
to stand trial, it produced a shock wave in the 
Jewish and German communities of Buenos Aires. 
Jewish leaders informed the Israeli authorities 
in no uncertain terms that this must never happen 
again because a repetition would permanently 
rupture relations with the Germans of Latin 
America, as well as with the Bormann 
organization, and cut off the flow of Jewish 
money to Israel. It never happened again, and the 
pursuit of Bormann quieted down at the request of 
these Jewish leaders. He is residing in an 
Argentinian safe haven, protected by the most 
efficient German infrastructure in history as 
well as by all those whose prosperity depends on his well-being.'
