Deforestation comes ‘roaring back’ despite 140-country vow to end destruction
A new report has found that demand for #meat, #soy, #palmoil and nickel #mining is hindering efforts to halt #deforestation by 2030, a global report finds. The destruction of global forests increased in 2023, and is higher than when 140 countries promised three years ago to halt deforestation by the end of the decade.
The rising destruction of the forests puts ambitions to halt #climatechange and stem the huge worldwide #extinction even further from reach, the researchers warn. They found that voluntary certification of commodities alone could not stop deforestation and that strong legislation was needed to stop the ecocide and destruction.
