This presentation was prepared and delivered during a workshop that involved Members of Parliament on the Natural Resources and Climate Change Committee of Parliament. The workshop was organized by the Ecological Christian Organization. The objective of the workshop was to create awareness among the Honorable members of Parliament about the ongoing review of the National Forestry Policy, (a process coordinated by the Forest Sector Support Department in the Ministry of Water and Environment). Furthermore, to get their general feedback and specific inputs into the review process with due consideration of the various emerging issues in the Forestry sector over the last 18 years since the forestry policy and legal framework came into force in 2001 and 2003, respectively. Thus, the presentation raised various emerging issues in this respect for consideration during the review process and also suggested recommendation on how the Honorable Members of Parliament should proactively engage in the process to ensure that resultant policy framework adequately addresses the emerging issues and also stands the taste of time.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

3. Historically low deforestation rates but worrying trends
• A decreasing trend in deforestation between 2015 and 2020 but 2.2
million hectares of forest loss and 1.5 million hectares of degraded
forests (Shapiro, et al., 2022)
• Between 2000 and
2016, the share of
intact forests in the
region went from 78%
to 67%, representing
23 millions hectares of
degraded forests
(Shapiro, et al., 2021)
Regional
assessment
in
the
Congo
Basin
• An increase in deforestation of nearly 30 000 ha (4.9%) in 2021
compared to the average of 2018-20, to reach a total of 636 000 ha
4. The challenge of aligning development goals with forest pledges
• Forests support important sectors of the economy for countries in the region, in
particular forestry.
• The lack of tenure security of local
communities in the Congo Basin and
overlaps between land use regimes
are the main underlying drivers of
forest disturbance.
• There are multiple drivers of deforestation at the local scale. A combination of small
scale agriculture and the construction of roads and buildings (« the rural complex »,
Shapiro et al. 2022) is the greatest contributor to deforestation and forest degradation
in the region.
• Industrial mining, forestry and commercial agriculture pose the greatest risks for
central intact forests.
Regional

the
Congo
Basin
5. Governments of the Congo Basin are putting in place important efforts to
fight agains deforestation in the region
• Countries have legal frameworks in place to oversee forest management
and protection. They also have land management laws, that regulate the use
of land and limit forest loss in the region.
• Strengthening tenure security and the recognition of community rights of
Indigenous people and local populations have been at the centre of many
public policy reforms.
• Gender considerations are increasingly
taken into account in forest policy.
• Despite this progress, implementation
and enforcement of these laws have
been slow and there is a lack of
coherence between sectoral policies.

6. Improvement opportunities to reach forest objectives
1. Congo Basin countries have ambitious economic development plans that
are anchored in industrial economic activities and large-scale
developments that can have a negative impact on forests.
Regional
assessment
in
the
Congo
Basin
2. Weak forest governance exacerbates encroachment into primary forests
and increase the presence of illegal activities in the forest sector.
3. Securing tenure regimes for forest communities is essential to fight
deforestation and some Congo Basin countries have taken promising
measures. Strengthening the rights of local actors and their participation
in forest governance can improve results in this area.
7. Improvement opportunities to reach forest objectives
4. Private sector actors have increasingly made commitments to address
deforestation from their primary products supply chains but their efficiency
in terms of reducing deforestation is debated.
Regional
assessment
in
the
Congo
Basin
5. Despite being the greatest global carbon sink, efforts to reach forest goals
in the Congo Basin remain under-financed by governments and the private
sector.
8. The need for a continuous evaluation of progress on the ground
• Civil society plays an important role in holding government and private
actors to account and support the inclusion of vulnerable groups into forest
decisionmaking, job creation, and revenue generation from sustainable
forest management.
• Putting in place progress indicators to track deforestation and the impact of
public policy is necessary. The caracterisation and harmonisation of
terminologies around forests and deforestation will support this tracking.
• These indicators and their analysis will enable assessments of the
implementation of policies, strategies and tracking mechanisms, of their
means, and of their results. Assessment frameworks such as that of the
Forest Declaration Assessment can support this regular updates and
tracking of progress.
Aligning forest objectives with other policy priorities does not
mean that all deforestation can be halted. It means that
evaluating and taking into account the contributions and
services of forests towards present and future generations ne
signifie pas que l'on puisse arrêter toute déforestation.
