Mudanças climáticas: um mito ou realidade no governo de Jair Bolsonaro e no terceiro mandato do governo de Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva

Abstract

The general objective of this work is to understand how the change from President Bolsonaro's government to President Lula III's third term of government influenced Brazilian Foreign Policy, intending to verify especially decision-making related to environmental and climate issues. To address this topic, a brief history of scientific studies related to climate change and evolution over the years will also be described. Conferences that took place aimed at mitigating climate change and preserving the environment will also be described. In addition, each president's main choices regarding Foreign Policy with regard to climate and environmental issues will be described. The topic is delimited from Bolsonaro's election (2018) to the second year of Lula's third term (2024), and will be approached based on an analysis comparing the two governments, in order to understand which paths were chosen and the trends followed. Finally, the consequences of government actions during this period will be raised.
