| is.evaluation.quotes | Between 2006 and 2013, 34 logging concessions achieved FSC forest management certification in Loreto, Madre de Dios and Ucayali under this regulatory context (FSC Peru and WWF Peru). Timber companies now operate 550,516.54 certified ha of forest under FSC forest management certificates. [...] In total, 940.000 ha were operated under FSC certificates as of 2014 (Cerutti et al., 2014). | |
| is.evaluation.quotes | We presented statistics and panel regressions using concession-level data to conclude that, at the least for these data and this time period, we find very little deforestation impacts of certification. | |
| is.evaluation.quotes | Even what is measured in the forest seems likely to change. The effects of selective logging, and thus very likely of FSC certification, may take the form of changes in level of forest degradation. That is a more subtle change than deforestation, yet can be absolutely critical to the provision of ecosystem services including carbon storage and species habitat. | |
