heya....According to FAO, the world's forests continue to shrink as populations increase and forest land is converted to agriculture and other uses. Some 129 million hectares of forest - an area almost equivalent in size to South Africa - have been lost since 1990, according to FAO's Global Forest Resources Assessment 2015.
- 60% of deforestation is caused by the extension of agro-industrial intensive farming (soya, palm oil, corn…);
- 30% is caused by small-scale farmers’ activity to develop their subsistence crops and energy resources (cooking wood).
Forest degradation is held responsible for 18 to 20% of greenhouse gas accumulation in the atmosphere. It is one of the main contributors to global warming. If we don’t stop deforestation, rainforests will have completely disappeared by 2040. Therefore, the various stakes of such a cause imply:
- The fight against global warming and carbon storage;
- Ecosystems and biodiversity protection: preserve one of the world’s largest living species reserve, fauna and flora all together;
- Protection of natural resources including freshwater resources;
- Food sovereignty: People’s right to healthy local food, resulting of sustainable production systems;
- Preservation of the cultural identity of the forests’ populations....
