Towards the convening of the Conference of Parties to the 13th United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, 3-14 December 2007 in Denpasar, Bali, campaign news forest destruction continues to increase. Destruction of forests is claimed as a major cause of global warming. Always preached forest and peat fires that involved increasing sea levels due to rising temperatures and melting ice in Green-land and Antarctica.There are not fair in this case. The ability of natural forests to absorb carbon content in the air and control the temperature rise or the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is hardly highlighted. The role of actual forest relied on to neutralize the carbon emissions from industrialized countries as if hidden.
What emerged precisely the attitude that developed countries continue to blame the developing countries, particularly Indonesia, because it is considered negligent preserving their forests. Even the pressures and constraints in the export of forest products is also associated with increased global warming is that in fact the majority are made by their own.
When examined, the main cause of saturation of carbon emissions it turns out there were four. One, which accounted for 42 percent of electricity; two, transportation accounted for 24 percent; three, the industry accounted for 20 percent, and the remaining four, population and the use of commercial goods accounted for 14 percent of global emissions. Forests are damaged though not the primary cause of carbon emissions.
Indonesia forest destruction
The problem is, most of the world's forests is now judged to have broken. Although developed countries in Europe and the United States as the world's largest instead of carbon has long lost its forest, the world's eyes focused only on developing country forests to absorb carbon is used as a pedestal emissions of developed countries. Deforestation in developing countries, including Indonesia, were forced to take account of the increasing global warming.
It must be admitted that Indonesia indeed had suffered considerable deforestation. An area of 300,000 hectares of deforestation occurred per year (1970s), increased to 600,000 hectares per year (1981), and became a million hectares per year in 1990. Data national deforestation in 1985-1997, not including Papua, an area recorded an average of 1.6 million hectares per year.
From the observation of 2000 Landsat imagery known that deforestation period 1997-2000 at an average of 2.83 million hectares per year for five major islands, including Maluku and Papua.Based on recent data, deforestation in 2001-2003 fell to below 1.5 million hectares per year.
The development of forest cover, especially in Java, both in the state forest and the people who performed on the premises, it was exhilarating.Forest area of 2.426 million hectares of the Java-Madura which are authorized to Perhutanioffice, between 2000 and 2003, increased area of forest cover.
In the forest area increased by 2.2 per cent forest cover or area of 69,520 hectares. The increase was of them in the protected forest area increased 0.5 percent and 1.6 percent of forest production. At the community land forested land area increased by 3.2 percent, or an area of 328,806 hectares. This shows the development of community forests quite rapidly during this period.
Green Perhutani Proclamation 2010 by Perhutanioffice any major impact. With just do not cut more than 6,000 acres, Perhutanioffice planted about 121,000 hectares in 2006 and in 2007 will be the planting area of 201,500 hectares. Before the year 2010, the Java-managed forests Perhutanioffice vacant land will be free.
Unfortunately, up to March 2005 major industrial countries the United States had not even willing to ratify the Kyoto Protocol, followed by Australia, Turkey, and Monaco. So although it is still difficult to expect, at least in the recent APEC meeting is the United States and Australia have moved to contribute "little money" to help rescue Indonesia's forests.
The COP 13 in Bali
Awareness
of the need for collaboration of the world face increasing carbon
emissions embodied in the Conference of Parties to the 13th United
Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP-13 to UNFCCC)
December 3-14, 2007 in Denpasar, Bali.Indonesia will show improvement efforts that have been conducted on forest land in Banyuwangi Perhutanioffice. In
various ways to the event to be held in ten thousand participants from
189 countries are valid if Indonesia and developing countries also
requires developed countries to relax the focus of the pressure that had
been conducted on forest exploitation activities.
Developed
countries should better understand the potential damage to itself as a
major contributor to global climate, and increase its support for
reforestation and land development.Damage
to forests should not be burdened with the threat of further delays in
the export trade in forest products that will result in the decline in
economic capacity of developing countries to improve their forest.
