Original: Global deforestation slowed in 2025 but Brazil’s election could undo “fragile” gains
New figures indicate global deforestation slowed in 2025, offering a rare piece of positive news for the world's forests. However, analysts caution these gains remain fragile, and Brazil's upcoming election is seen as a key risk that could reverse progress in the Amazon and beyond, putting forest policy back at the centre of climate debate.
Why now: Brazil's election raises fears that progress on slowing deforestation could be reversed.
