REDD ++: ANO ITO at PARA KANINO?

REDD ++: ANO ITO at PARA KANINO?Val Vibal AMA-TFFSANO ang REDD?Ang REDD = REDUCING EMISSION from DEFORESTATION and forest DEGRADATIONA mechanism to create an incentive for developing countries to protect, better manage and wisely use their forest resources, contributing to the global fight against climate change. REDD strategies aim to make forests more valuable standing than they would be cut down, by creating a financial value for the carbon stored in trees. Once this carbon is assessed and quantified, the final phase of REDD involves developed countries paying developing countries carbon offsets for their standing forests2

ANO ang REDD?Land spanning more than 0.5 hectares with trees higher than 5 metres and a canopy cover of more than 10% or trees able to reach these thresholds.Categories planted forests, plantations.

ANO ang REDD?DEFORESTATION ang permanenteng pagkasira ng kagubatan sa pamamagitan ng land conversion Kabilang din dito ang pagbawas ng forest crown hanggang sa mas mababa sa 10%DEGRADATION ang pagbawas ng biomass mula sa gubat, dahil sa extraction timber harvesting, fuel wood gathering, national disaster

ANO ang REDD+?PLUS dinagdagang conservation, enhancement of forest stocks and sustainable management of forests.Reducing GHG emissions REDDIncreasing sequestration REDD PLUSMuli sa pagpapabuti ng kagubatan tungo sa pagtatayo ng bagong gubat o carbon sinks plantasyon, agroforestry

BAKIT MAY REDD?UPANG BAWASAN ang PROBLEMA ng KRISIS sa KLIMA. (GUBAT bilang CARBON SINK)GLOBAL WARMING 4,500 GTC (gigatons of carbon) tinatayang dami ng carbon na natatago sa gubat2.6 GTC ang daming carbon na sinisipsip ng gubat

KAILANGAN PIGILAN ang PATULOY an PAGKASIRA ng KAGUBATAN at PAYABUNGIN ito sa HINAHARAP9 13 MILYONG EKTARYA ANG NASISIRANG GUBAT TAUN -TAON (ayonsa FAO)

BAKIT MAY REDD?50% ng daming emissions mula sa deforestation ay sinasabinggalingsa Indonesia at Brazil, kaya sila ang 3 at 4 na pinakamalakiang GHG emissions.

Ang pagkasira ng kagubatan sa pinakamalaking kontribusyon sa GHG emissionsBAKIT MAY REDD?

DRIVERS OF DEFORESTATION: Agriculture: Monoculture plantations: Logging: Paggawa ng kalsada: Minahan: Oil extraction

SINO BA ANG DAPAT SISIHIN?Ang mga may kontrol at pag-aaring mga drivers of deforestation ay mga korporasyon; mga korporasyon na pinag-mamay-aring ng mga Annex 1 countriesAnnex 1 countries ang may malaking kinalaman sa pangunahing dahilan ng climate change 25% ay ang GHG emissions mula sa energy supply

Philippine National REDD Plus Strategy(PNRPS)

touted as a a bottoms-up, multi-stakeholder approach ( over 500 persons consulted, 7 consultations, 2 reviews by experts)MAGIC PILL ? presents a broad range of strategies and corresponding activities over a 10-year time horizon (2010-2020)Philippine National REDD Plus Strategy(PNRPS) seeks to prepare forestlands managers throughout the country to assume responsibility in implementing REDD-plus programs, research, projects and activities with the support of international, national and local agencies, NGOs and other support groups.Why REDD +? The Philippines has great promise for REDD-plus implementation with regards to potential to deliver co-benefits such as biodiversity conservation, ecological restoration (rainforestation) possible equitable benefit distribution given its progressive pro-community land tenure and forest management policies (IPRA 8371, EO 263) and strong civil society participationPhilippine National REDD Plus Strategy(PNRPS)UN-REDD

Sa esensya hindi ang pagsagip ng kagubatan at pagresolba sa krisis ng klima ang REDD.Off set ito para maiwasan ang obligasyon ng mga Annex 1 na bawasan ang ibinubugang usok sa kalawakanBagong mekanismo ito para paglagakan ng sobra-sobrang kapital dahil sa krisis 2. Pinagkakait nito ang mga batayang karapatan ng mga katutubo , settlers at maliliit na magsasaka sa kabuhayan, pagkain atbp.TOTOO Ba ANG PANGAKO?3. ANG REDD + ay isang HUNGKAG (FALSE) SOLUTION sa KRISIS ng KLIMAANG PILIPINAS sa pangunahing ay interestado sa pondoISANG kongkretong halimbawa ito ng commodification ng kalikasan.
