Brazil's upcoming election is drawing global attention to the Amazon's future, as candidates Lula and Bolsonaro present starkly different visions for the rainforest, per Dialogo Americas.

The Amazonian community that has successfully resisted big oil operations is now sharing strategies with indigenous groups across Latin America, Inside Climate News reports.
