✦AI Summary
Brazil's Amazon experienced a significant decline in the area burned in 2025, with 3.1 million hectares compared to a record 15.8 million in 2024, marking the smallest area since 1985. This positive trend is attributed to reduced fires and an easing of the unprecedented 2024 season, boosting President Lula's re-election campaign.
