- Forest Loss in Sumatra Becomes a Global Issue - New York Times: Recently many pulp and paper companies have descended on Riau, Indonesia, snatching up generous government concessions to log and establish palm oil plantations in response to global demand for palm oil, which is used in cooking and cosmetics and biodiesel. Riau?s disappearing forests has become a global issue attracting Greenpeace. Deforestation, during which carbon stored in trees is released into the atmosphere, now accounts for 20 percent of the world?s greenhouse gas emissions, according to scientists. And Indonesia releases more carbon dioxide through deforestation than any other country. Within Indonesia, the situation is most critical in Riau. In the past 10 years, nearly 60 percent of the province?s forests have been logged, burned and pulped, according to Jikalahari, a local environmental group.
