By Liz Kimbrough Conservation efforts are making a significant difference in protecting the planet’s biodiversity, according to a new study published in the journal Science. In an analysis of 186 studies covering 665 trials, researchers evaluated the impact of conservation interventions globally over the past century. In two-thirds of the cases, conservation actions either improved biodiversity or slowed its decline. “Our study shows that when conservation actions work, they really work,” said Jake Bicknell, co-author of the paper and a conservation scientist at University of Kent. “In other w...

By Hans Nicholas Jong JAKARTA — The Indonesian government has rolled out what it calls a “biodiversity management master plan” amid mounting criticism of the environmental and social threats posed by the construction of the country’s new capital city in the Bornean forest. The plan, published March 26, sets out a number of action plans to preserve wildlife habitat, protect species and restore damaged ecosystems in the new capital, known as Nusantara, through to 2029. The ultimate goal is to ensure 65% of the area of the new capital is tropical rainforest, by designating protected areas and reh...

By Maxwell Radwin The cattle ranching industry in Brazil is one of the largest in the world, but it could see huge financial losses if it doesn’t adapt to climate change and increasingly rigorous deforestation policies to protect the Amazon, a new report says. Domestic beef production in Brazil could drop by 25% by 2050 as governments and the private sector look to step up climate change and forest conservation strategies, according to a new report from Orbitas, an initiative of Climate Advisers. The industry will have to find ways to adapt soon or else risk major losses. “The future of the Br...

A total of 1.16 million hectares (2.87 million acres) of land and forest were burned last year, with an intense El Niño weather pattern a major factor.

These figures, while alarming on their own,...

By Hans Nicholas Jong JAKARTA — Indonesia is experiencing a resurgence in forest clearance due to the expansion of pulpwood and oil palm plantations, reversing years of declining deforestation associated with these two industries. And at the forefront of this new wave of deforestation is a single company identified in a report by a coalition of environmental NGOs that include the Environmental Paper Network, Woods & Wayside International and Rainforest Action Network. Since 2021, according to the report, pulpwood producer PT Mayawana Persada has converted 33,070 hectares (81,718 acres) of rain...

By Hans Nicholas Jong JAKARTA — Farm-to-fork traceability has become an increasingly urgent, and often required, component of global supply chains, with a growing number of commodities now trackable all the way back to their source. But for palm oil, one of the most controversial yet widely used commodities today, full traceability from the plantation to supermarket shelves to households remains a challenge due to the complexity of the supply chain. A single ton of palm oil derivative like stearic acid, for instance, used in detergents and cosmetics, is likely to consist of palm oil from hundr...

By Maxwell Radwin The government in Suriname said it cancelled a controversial pilot program that would have brought hundreds of Mennonites to the country to carry out agricultural activity, likely in forested areas. Suriname President Chan Santokhi confirmed to local media this week that he shuttered a pilot program setting aside 30,000 hectares (74,131 acres) for 50 Mennonite families, easing some fears that the country was on the verge of destroying large parts of the Amazon Rainforest. “We in the international conservation movement congratulate President Santokhi and the people of Suriname...

By Simon Zimmermann Die Tricky Trees fallen nun mit 21 Punkten von Platz 17 auf die Abstiegsränge, einen Zähler hinter Luton Town, das damit auf das rettende Ufer rutscht. Eine offizielle Mitteilung der Premier League wird noch am Montag erwartet. Wie der Guardian berichtet, hat Forest den Regelverstoß zugegeben, wird aber wahrscheinlich noch Einspruch gegen den Vier-Punkte-Abzug einlegen. Der Verkauf von Eigengewächws Brennan Johnson ist in diesem Fall ein Schlüssel, auf dem sich der Klub berufen möchte. Der Verein hätte ihn im vergangenen Sommer vor Ablauf der PSR-Frist im Juni an Brentford ...
