Durban voulait sauver le marché et non pas le climat

February 2, 2012

Ce rapport spécial conclut que si l'objectif des négociations est de réduire la déforestation, alors le succès doit être mesuré en considérant dans quelle mesure les activités financées renforcent les droits fonciers, améliorent la gouvernance forestière et réduisent la pression exercée sur les forêts par une consommation non durable.

NGOs question what the added value of this instrument will be and whether an LBA will really be able to deal with potential conflicts of interest concerning the future of Europe’s forests. This ForestWatch special outlines the main issues.
