Under new rules unveiled last week, the European Commission plans to ban the sale of agricultural products made in deforested and degraded land. The initial list of contains food products that covers soy, beef, palm oil, cocoa and coffee, but also timber and other wood products<\/p>\n

The draft law, which will need to be approved by EU governments and the European parliament, comes weeks after more than 100 world leaders promised to end global deforestation by 2030 at the UN COP26 summit.<\/p>\n

The six products account for around 19 per cent of commodity imports into the EU, with the ban designed to reduce the impact of European consumer demand on the world\u2019s forests and indigenous communities.<\/p>\n

To guide domestic authorities in their daily work, the European Commission will establish a ranking of countries split according to their risk of deforestation: low, standard and high. Products made in high-risk countries will be subject to closer scrutiny and more stringent rules.<\/p>\n

The list will be public with the aim of directing consumers and investors towards sustainable markets.<\/p>\n

Brussels hopes the rules will reduce carbon emissions by 32 million metric tons a year and act as a pressure tool to encourage similar legislation in other countries.<\/p>\n

Will other products be targeted?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Initially, the regulation will cover six products: soy, beef, palm oil, cocoa, coffee and wood.<\/p>\n

The rules also include some derived products, such as chocolate, cocoa powder, leather, plywood, box pallets, barrels and wooden frames.<\/p>\n

The European Commission considers EU consumption of these commodities is aggravating deforestation the most. According to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), the bloc is the world's second-biggest importer of deforestation, only behind China and above India and the United States.<\/p>\n

Virginijus Sinkevicius, the EU\u2019s commissioner for the environment and oceans, said the list was a \"political decision\" and should be viewed as a starting point, with the possibility of gradually adding more products.<\/p>\n

For the time being, the regulation will cover deforestation related to forests and will exclude the damages arising from draining wetlands and peatlands for agricultural purposes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
