Summary
Beset by economic woes and dissatisfied with the left-wing politicians in power for most of the past 15 years, Brazil appears to be a big hit and a far-right candidate, Jair Bolsonaro, as its next president. His rapid ascent has unnerved local researchers, who is concerned about the future of Brazilian science, the protection of the country's biodiversity, and its role in the global struggle against climate change. Bolsonaro has made some concessions in the climate change, and it plans to eliminate the Ministry of the Environment and the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply.
