Approximately 56 % of these

forests are located in tropicaland subtropical areas;

seven countries possess about

60% of it,25 countries around 82%

170 countries share 18%.

The highest amounts of deforestation: in South America:

4.3 million hectares per year, followed by Africa with 4 million hectares per year.

FORESTS –FACTS ANDFIGURES

20 % of current global CO2 emissions,more than the total emitted by the

global transport sectorwith its intensive use of fossil fuels.

More than

one billion people rely heavily on forests for their

livelihoods.

More than two billion people,1/3 of the world’s population, use biomass

fuels, mainly firewood, to cook and toheat their homes.

1.7 billion tonnesof CO2 are released annually due to land use change. The major portion is from

tropical deforestation.

PROTECTED AREAS

FUNDRAISINGFLOW CHART

The Forestry Service prepares a report defining reduction of emissions from data produced by Inpe. The report is assessed by the Technical Committee.

The Forestry Service sends the report to the BNDES and assigns the

amount to be reduced and the amount per ton of CO2.

The BNDES starts raising funds in accordance with the defined windows.

Fundraising

• Based on reduced emission from deforestation

• New resources are only raised when emissions in the Amazon have in fact been reduced.

• Emissions avoided are based on the deforestation reduction compared to the 10-year average deforestation rate, revised every five years

• If deforestation rate is higher than the average rate, the Fund will not be able to raise funds in that year

• Emissions are calculated as of the deforestation rate per hectare in the year.

Monitoring system for the Brazilian Amazon: INPE (since 1988)

Prodes Methodology (Deforestation Monitoring Project in the Legal Amazon)

Equivalence of Carbon per Hectare of Forest

• The Amazon Fund uses the value of 100 tC/ha (tons of carbon per hectare) of biomass corresponding to 367 tCO2e/ha (tons of carbon dioxide per hectare);

• An extremely conservative value when compared with literature data (from 130 to 320 tC/ha), but adequate to the simplicity intended for the computation method and helpful to its understanding.

11) Reverse the loss of forest cover through SFM

22) Enhance forest-based economic, social and environmental benefits including improving the livelihoods of forest dependent people

33) Increase the area of protected forests and increase the proportion of forest products from SFM

44) Reverse the decline of ODA for SFM and mobilize new financial resources from all sources for the implementation of SFM

Global Objectives (of SFM)

E Effective implementation of SFM is critically dependent upon adequate resources, capacity development and the transfer of environmentally sound technologies

EEnvironmentally sound technologies are not just individual technologies, but total systems which include know-how, procedures, goods and services, and equipment as well as organizational and managerial procedures

LLikewise, a fund like the Amazon Fund is not just a distribution mechanism . It must comprise a total system’s approach and must deal with the innumerable dimensions of development

SFM contributes to . . . . . . . development goals

● The role of national policies and development strategies cannot be overemphasized

● To maintain and enhance support to analytical work and knowledge generation

● Creating an effective enabling environment for investment in SFM

● Creating an enabling environment for the involvement of and investment by local communities and other forest users

● Encouraging the development of mechanisms, including systems for attributing proper value, to the benefits derived from goods and services provided by forests

● Supporting livelihoods and income diversification from forest products and services for small-scale forest owners

Recognizing, emphasizing, recalling

● The implementation of SFM is critically dependent upon good governance at all levels

Stressing

Noting

● Grants ≠ non-reimbursing loans

● A good idea does not necessarily mean a good project

At its outset, the Amazon Fund must have contributed to bequest to future Amazon generations a whole new array of regionally involved, capable, financially sound, transparent and accountable players able to support a new sustainable development dynamics for the region

The world sponsors it. Brazil tends to it. We all win.
