Deklarasi New York tentang Kehutanan Hutan
Summary
The New York Declaration on Forests is a statement outlining a global vision to slow, stop, and reverse forest loss while enhancing food security. It identifies the conversion of forests for commodity production—specifically soy, palm oil, beef, and paper—as a primary driver of global deforestation and sets specific time-bound targets for forest restoration and emission reductions to limit global warming to 2°C.
Key insights
- Forests are critical for human survival and biodiversity, supporting over 1.6 billion people for food, water, fuel, medicine, traditional culture, and livelihoods, while hosting up to 80% of terrestrial biodiversity.
- Global deforestation averages 13 million hectares per year. Nearly half of this loss is caused by converting forests for commodity production, including beef, palm oil, soy, and paper, with further contributions from energy, mining, infrastructure, residential expansion, and fuelwood harvesting.
- The declaration sets specific targets to reduce natural forest loss by half globally by 2020, with the goal of ending it entirely by 2030. It also aims to restore 150 million hectares of degraded forest land by 2020 and an additional 200 million hectares by 2030.
- The document commits to supporting private sector targets to eliminate deforestation from the production of soy, palm oil, beef, and paper by 2020, and aims to significantly reduce deforestation from other economic sectors by the same year.
- Achieving the stated goals is estimated to reduce emissions by 4.5 to 8.8 billion tons per year by 2030, contributing to the global objective of limiting warming to 2°C.
