HUTAN DALAM FOKUS
Summary
The document outlines the objectives of the New York Declaration on Forests (NYDf), noting that the 2020 target to halve deforestation was not met. It identifies drivers of forest loss, such as global commodity demand and extractive industries, while highlighting the role of financial institutions and the necessity of empowering Indigenous peoples and local communities to achieve climate solutions.
Key insights
- The New York Declaration on Forests (NYDf), established in 2014 by governments, companies, indigenous peoples, and civil society, has over 200 supporters committed to ending forest loss and restoring degraded landscapes.
- The global target to reduce deforestation by half by 2020 was not achieved, with the world continuing to lose 10 million hectares of forest annually, an area comparable to Iceland.
- Deforestation is driven by short-term economic growth and global commodity demand, specifically seven agricultural commodities—cattle, palm oil, soy, cocoa, rubber, coffee, and wood fiber—which cause more than half of tree cover loss.
- Financial and industrial activities significantly impact forests, with nearly 20% of intact tropical forest landscapes overlapping with mining, oil, and gas concessions, and nearly two-thirds of the top 150 financial institutions lacking deforestation policies despite channeling trillions of dollars to high-risk companies.
- Despite being the best managers of forest lands, Indigenous peoples and local communities remain neglected and excluded from primary decision-making roles.
