After her election earlier this month, she is also tipped to return to her former position at the helm of the Ministry of Environment, should Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva pip Jair Bolsonaro to the presidency in the second-round runoff on 30 October.<\/p>\n<div class='block--pullout-stat block--pullout-stat--float cd-shortcode--factbox'>\n                <p class='block--pullout-stat__title'>58%<\/p>\n                <div class='block--pullout-stat__content'>\n                    <br \/>\nDeforestation in the Brazilian Amazon fell by 58% between 2004 and 2007, under the guidance of Marina Silva in her former role as environment minister<br \/>\n\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<p>Marina Silva served as environment minister between 2003 and 2008, during Lula\u2019s previous presidency (2003-2010), a tenure which saw Brazil become a world leader in the <a href=\"http:\/\/repositorio.ipea.gov.br\/bitstream\/11058\/5490\/1\/BRU_n3_unidades_conservacao.pdf\">creation of protected areas<\/a>, while deforestation in the Amazon <a href=\"http:\/\/www.obt.inpe.br\/OBT\/assuntos\/programas\/amazonia\/prodes\">fell by 58%<\/a> between 2004 and 2007. Silva then stayed three further years in Bras\u00edlia to finish her mandate as a senator.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, she has sought to tread her own path in politics. In 2013, she founded her own party, the Sustainability Network (REDE), before contesting three presidential elections, running against the Workers\u2019 Party of which she was a member for over two decades. But on 12 September, the tide turned, as Lula and Marina publicly announced their reconciliation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPolitically, there were \u2013 and are \u2013 divergences,\u201d she told Di\u00e1logo Chino. Nevertheless, she was clear that the risk of a second term for Bolsonaro required broad alliances. \u201cWe have reached a situation where it is either democracy or the end of democracy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Silva said that despite their political distance, she and Lula \u2013 who share similar backgrounds of poor childhoods and struggles in social movements \u2013 had never stopped talking. During their reunion, which had been sealed earlier in private, she handed him a list with 26 commitments to \u201crescue the lost Brazilian socio-environmental agenda\u201d.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_57943\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-57943\" style=\"width: 350px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/uncategorised\/57867-amazon-presidential-elections-motivated-race-for-forest-destruction\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-57943\" src=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/deforestacion-amazonia_FlaviaMilhorance1440x720.jpg\" alt=\"aerial photo of deforestation in Brazilian Amazonia\" width=\"350\" height=\"175\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-57943\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/uncategorised\/57867-amazon-presidential-elections-motivated-race-for-forest-destruction\/\">Aerial images show deforestation \u2018race\u2019 in Amazon ahead of Brazilian elections<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In the document later <a href=\"https:\/\/g1.globo.com\/economia\/blog\/ana-flor\/post\/2022\/09\/12\/para-apoiar-lula-marina-pede-compromissos-ambientais.ghtml\">released<\/a> to the press, Silva calls for the restoration of technical staff and budgets at environmental agencies, including the Ministry of Environment, which have been <a href=\"https:\/\/noticias.uol.com.br\/ultimas-noticias\/agencia-estado\/2019\/12\/07\/ministerio-do-meio-ambiente-tem-comando-esvaziado-e-acoes-paradas.htm\">dismantled<\/a> during Bolsonaro\u2019s administration. Among other actions, there are also demands for the resumption of plans to prevent and control deforestation of the Amazon and Cerrado, something created during her time as minister, as well as the encouragement of low-carbon agriculture.<\/p>\n<p>She is confident that her proposals will be taken forward by Lula, should he win the presidency: \u201cOn that day of the twelfth, the former president made a public commitment saying that the Brazilian environmental agenda will be transversal, and that it will be at the highest level of priority.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Minister once more?<\/h2>\n<p>Marina Silva seems the most obvious <a href=\"https:\/\/valor.globo.com\/politica\/eleicoes-2022\/noticia\/2022\/10\/07\/quem-pode-ser-ministro-de-lula-ou-bolsonaro-num-futuro-governo.ghtml\">candidate<\/a> to assume the post at the environment ministry in a potential Workers\u2019 Party government. But when asked if she would accept the position, she refused to comment: \u201cAt this moment, no presidential candidate should be talking about a ministry. And no one who supports a candidate should be thinking about a ministry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whether as federal deputy or minister, the environmentalist will face a congress that, as current affairs and culture magazine <a href=\"https:\/\/piaui.folha.uol.com.br\/eleicoes-2022\/um-congresso-mais-hostil-ao-meio-ambiente\">Piau\u00ed<\/a> defined it, is \u201cmore hostile to the environment\u201d, starting with the recent election of Ricardo Salles, a former ministry head under Bolsonaro.

And no one who supports a candidate should be thinking about a ministry<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile in the senate, there is a return for Bolsonaro ally Jorge Seif Junior, a former agriculture and fisheries minister who, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/theintercept.com\/2020\/05\/25\/secretario-pesca-bolsonaro-cria-regra-para-pai-lucrar\/\">The Intercept<\/a>, changed fishing sector regulations to benefit his family.

These present situations that will be difficult to reverse in the short term, even though climate targets taken on by the country are already knocking at the door.<\/p>\n<h2>No plain sailing for a Lula government<\/h2>\n<p>Struggles could even come within a potential Lula and Workers\u2019 Party government. \u201cThe divergence of Lula and Marina was representative, and very profound,\u201d explained Natalie Unterstell, founder of Pol\u00edtica por Inteiro, which monitors environmental policy in Brazil. \u201cHe has a more developmentalist agenda, while she has more of a sustainability agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_57515\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-57515\" style=\"width: 350px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/trade-investment\/57418-what-brazils-elections-could-mean-for-relations-with-china\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-57515\" src=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Xi-Jinping-China-Brasil-Bolsonaro-Lula-elecciones-presidenciales_alamy-1440x720-1.jpg\" alt=\"Xi Jinping at an event in front of the flags of Brazil and China\" width=\"350\" height=\"175\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-57515\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>See also: <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/trade-investment\/57418-what-brazils-elections-could-mean-for-relations-with-china\/\">What Brazil\u2019s elections could mean for relations with China<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Furthermore, Silva\u2019s resentment went beyond political differences and accumulated losing battles. One of her most notorious <a href=\"https:\/\/www.estadao.com.br\/politica\/marina-silva-tem-historico-de-magoas-contra-o-pt-de-lula-entenda\/\">grievances<\/a> with the Workers\u2019 Party occurred in the 2014 elections, when former president Dilma Rousseff was seeking re-election and waged a heavy campaign against her.<\/p>\n<p>In the second round of those elections, Marina supported the right-wing candidate, A\u00e9cio Neves, ahead of Rousseff. Then in 2016, she also supported Rousseff\u2019s impeachment. Even in 2018, in the second-round contest between Workers\u2019 Party candidate Fernando Haddad and far-right Jair Bolsonaro, Marina resisted speaking out in favour of her former party, eventually expressing her intention to lend a \u201ccritical vote\u201d to Haddad.<\/p>\n<p>Today, political analysts see the 2018 victory of the far right and Bolsonaro\u2019s anti-establishment discourse as a process in which the impeachment of the former president played a role. Asked whether she regretted not throwing stronger support behind the Workers&#8217; Party, Silva is ambivalent: \u201cThe context that we had was one where political choices had to be made, and they were made in light of the facts that were laid out there.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Brazil will lead by example again, it will assume leadership in the international environmental agenda<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Even if past resentments remain present, with their September reconciliation, the politicians decided to look forward. \u201cIt was a really pragmatic reunion, and has been very welcomed,\u201d Unterstell said. \u201cIt touches people\u2019s minds and hearts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marina Silva has since been putting her influence at the disposal of the Workers\u2019 Party campaign. The weekend before the first round of the elections, she stood onstage with Lula in S\u00e3o Paulo, and now has volunteered to talk to <a href=\"https:\/\/valor.globo.com\/politica\/eleicoes-2022\/noticia\/2022\/10\/03\/marina-silva-se-coloca-disposio-para-negociar-com-ciro-em-busca-de-apoio-a-lula.ghtml\">politicians<\/a> and <a

former president.<\/p>\n<p>In our interview, she was confident in her conclusion: \u201cBrazil will lead by example again, it will assume leadership in the international environmental agenda, and give
