Professor Eduardo (The Weatherman) warned of an intense storm that, as he wrote, was expected from this Tuesday between Coquimbo and parts of Los Ríos, with downpours, thunderstorms, hail, and gusts of wind. He attributed the phenomenon to a low pressure that could generate storms for several hours. He also indicated that the isotherm would not drop below 2,500 meters above sea level and that periods of heavy rain would be recorded, which he considered to pose a very high risk of sudden floods and landslides. According to the author, the greatest intensity was projected between the Metropolitan Region and Biobío, and some areas could accumulate more than 80 mm during those days. He added that instability would continue until Saturday in the central and southern regions, that there were already indications of another event for the following week, and that storms could be recorded that same night in areas of the central zone. #tormenta #alerta #clima (translated)

Jones Manoel stated that the government of Jair Bolsonaro represented a threat to the environment and said that Flávio Bolsonaro was following the same path. He associated the son of the former president with criminal organizations, militias, and practices of kickbacks. Manoel criticized proposals from Flávio's government plan to accelerate environmental licensing. According to him, the measure could allow the issuance of licenses before the completion of the analysis by the responsible agencies, increasing the risk of damage to rivers, forests, and communities. He also warned of potential risks of water contamination and impacts on soil with the release of fracking, in addition to the effects of the expansion of mining and the exploration of oil and gas. The author also stated that the plan envisioned reorganizing the functions of agencies responsible for oversight and environmental protection and traditional territories, such as Ibama, Funai, and ICMBio. He defended the role of licensing and oversight in preventing impacts on nature and communities. Manoel called Flávio Bolsonaro a setback and advocated for the re-election of President Lula, as well as the end of what he described as a project of destruction of Brazil by the Bolsonaro family. #MeioAmbiente #Sustentabilidade #Bolsonaro (translated)

Tarcísio Gomes de Freitas criticized the PT and the left, stating that they were neglecting the situation in the Amazon. He said that São Paulo demonstrated that a right-wing government could reconcile environmental preservation and development. According to Freitas, in 2025 the area affected by fires in state conservation units fell by 91% compared to 2024. He also stated that in August 2026, the state recorded the lowest number of hotspots for that month since the beginning of the historical series in 1998. He mentioned that more than R$ 400 million had been mobilized to prevent and combat wildfires, with investments in technology, satellite monitoring, and artificial intelligence. The governor also declared that over 44,000 hectares were in the process of forest restoration and that 13.2 thousand hectares had been incorporated into state protected areas. Regarding river recovery, he cited R$ 22 billion in investments in IntegraTietê, more than 1.5 million households connected to the sewage network, and 6.5 million cubic meters of sediments removed from the Tietê basin. According to him, the organic pollution load of the river had decreased by almost 30%, and the pollution stain had receded by 33 kilometers, about 16%. Freitas stated that these actions had not impeded economic development, job creation, and the growth of São Paulo, and he argued that environmental protection depended on responsibility and work, not ideology. #MeioAmbiente #DesenvolvimentoSustentável #SãoPaulo (translated)
