Deklarasi New York tentang Kehutanan (New York Declaration on Forests/NYDF)

The New York Declaration on Forests (NYDF) is a commitment to end natural forest loss and degradation by 2030 and restore 350 million hectares of forest landscapes. The declaration identifies agricultural commodities, infrastructure, and mining as primary drivers of deforestation and emphasizes the central role of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities in forest protection. Achieving these goals is framed as a cost-effective climate solution capable of mitigating over 7 billion tonnes of CO2e annually by 2030, supporting the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C warming limit.

• Global forests are critical for biodiversity and climate regulation, supporting up to 80% of terrestrial biodiversity and absorbing carbon naturally, yet an average of 10 million hectares of forest are lost annually.
• Approximately half of global deforestation is caused by the permanent conversion of forests for agricultural commodities, specifically soy, palm oil, beef, and paper, while infrastructure, urban expansion, energy, and mining further accelerate forest degradation.
• The NYDF sets specific targets for 2030, including ending the loss and degradation of natural forests, restoring 350 million hectares of forest and degraded landscapes, and reducing emissions from deforestation to align with the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C goal.
• The declaration emphasizes that Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities are the most effective protectors of forests and must be central to deforestation solutions, including the recognition of their land and resource rights.
• Successful implementation of these forest goals could result in more than 7 billion tonnes of CO2 equivalent (CO2e) in cost-effective climate change mitigation per year by 2030.
