"Brazil just elected a new, far-right president on Sunday, and the event has environmentalists, among many other activists, worried about the fate of not just the country but the planet. Jair Bolsonaro, who has been called a fascist by some of his critics, ran a campaign focused on ending corruption and helping Brazil recover from a long economic slump. He also openly advocated for the jailing of political opponents, exalted Brazil’s former military dictatorship, has made homophobic, misogynist, xenophobic, and racist remarks, and said he would (like a man he is often compared to, Donald Trump) pull out of the Paris climate accords—though he later backtracked on this specific claim. Among his terrifying promises was to open more of the Amazon rain forest to Brazil’s powerful agribusiness lobby, which scientists and activists foresee as a potential death knell for the world’s already slim chances of combatting climate change. Now, they’re bracing themselves for Bolsonaro’s follow-through."
