Penilaian Deklarasi Hutan 2025
Summary
The 2025 Forest Declaration Assessment reports that global forests remain in crisis, with 8.07 million hectares of deforestation in 2024, leaving the world 63% off track for 2030 goals. While some natural recovery and national reforms in countries like Brazil and Indonesia show promise, the report finds that corporate commitments are largely unimplemented and public finance for forests is dwarfed by environmentally harmful agricultural subsidies. It calls for a shift from voluntary pledges to mandatory regulations and inclusive governance that secures land rights for Indigenous Peoples and local communities.
Key insights
- Global forests continue to face severe destruction, with 8.07 million hectares of deforestation in 2024, which places the world 63% off track to meet the goal of ending deforestation by 2030. Tropical forests specifically lost approximately 6.73 million hectares in 2024, releasing 3.1 billion metric tons of greenhouse gases.
- Agricultural expansion remains the primary driver of global deforestation, accounting for an average of 86% of losses over the last decade, while mining is identified as an increasing threat.
- Forest degradation is increasing sharply and is often overlooked in national monitoring; in 2024, 8.8 million hectares of tropical moist forests were degraded, with the Amazon Basin particularly affected by burning.
- Corporate action remains insufficient, with only 3% of companies assessed by Forest 500 meeting expectations for strong deforestation commitments, and 63% showing a lack of ambition or implementation.
- International public funding for forests increased to approximately US$5.7 billion for 2022-24, but this is only 1.4% of the US$409 billion allocated annually to environmentally harmful agricultural subsidies.
- Governance is hindered by power imbalances and insecure land rights; while protected areas cover 17.5% of global land as of 2024, only 4% are managed by Indigenous Peoples and local communities.
- Illegal activities drive a significant portion of forest loss, with estimates suggesting 61% to 94% of tropical deforestation for agriculture is illegal, contributing to annual profits of US$281 billion from environmental crimes.
