El aceite de palma sigue destrozando las selvas y tu salud » Bosques
20/10/2007. Kuala Cenasku, Riau, Sumatra, Indonesia. Vista de la destruccion de bosque a causa de las plantaciones de aceite de palma, cerca del Campamento en defensa de los Bosques de Greenpeace. El Campamento en defensa de los Bosques de Greenpeace, que fue inaugurado el 9 de octubre como parte de la campaña para detener la destruccion de bosques y tuberas causada por las plantaciones de palma de aceite. La destruccion esta causando grandes perdidas de biodiversidad y la liberacion de enormes cantidades de gases de efecto invernadero. Antes de la reunion del Protocolo de Kyoto en diciembre de 2007 en Bali, Greenpeace ha pedido al gobierno de Indonesia que se comprometa a una moratoria sobre la conversion y la destruccion de las tuberas de Indonesia. ©Greenpeace/Oka Budhi A view of forest destruction and the forest wall seen in the background near the Greenpeace Forest Defenders Camp. The Forest Defenders Camp opened on the 9th October as part of the organisations campaign to stop forest and peatland destruction caused in part by oil palm plantations. The destruction is causing massive amounts of biodiversity loss and releasing huge amounts of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere. In the short-term, prior to the December 2007 Kyoto Protocol meeting in Bali, Greenpeace is calling on the Indonesian government to commit to a moratorium on conversion and destruction of Indonesian peatland. Deforestation accounts for approximately one-fifth of global greenhouse gas emissions. ©Greenpeace Handout – No sales – No Archives – Editorial Use Only – Free use only for 14 days after release.
