Deforestation in Colombia appears to have declined in 2025, with notable reductions in several departments like Meta, Caquetá and Guaviare.
Officials attribute the declining trend to collaboration with Indigenous communities and environmental zoning in rural areas, as well as ecotourism and a program providing financial incentives for communities involved in forest conservation.

Major soy buyers plan to exit the Amazon Soy Moratorium, a voluntary pact that kept deforestation-linked soy out of global supply chains for nearly 20 years.
Critics warn the move could undo hard-won gains, especially in Mato Grosso, where deforestation is rising despite national declines.

After Cyclone Senyar killed more than 1,100 people across Sumatra, Indonesia’s government is now linking disaster impacts to development and corporate activity, launching audits of 100+ companies and reviews of zoning plans.
Civil society welcomes the shift, but warns real reform depends on revising permissive zoning that enables large-scale forest conversion.

#Deforestation climbs in #CentralAmerica ’s largest biosphere reserve
https://news.mongabay.com/2025/12/deforestation-climbs-in-central-americas-largest-biosphere-reserve/
> Encompassing some 7,400 square kilometers, or 2,860 square miles, along the Honduran border, Nicaragua’s Bosawás Biosphere Reserve is the largest biosphere reserve in Central America. It’s home to the Miskito and Mayanga Indigenous groups as well as countless species; endangered Geoffrey’s spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi) and Baird’s tapirs (Tapirus bairdii) inhabit Bosawas, as do critically endangered Saslaya moss salamanders (Nototriton saslaya), that are found nowhere else in the world.

The two-week COP30 climate summit in Belém, Brazil, saw the largest global participation of Indigenous leaders in the conference’s history.
But sources say frustrations grew as negotiators failed to establish pathways for rapid climate finance for adaptation, loss and damage, or to create road maps for reversing deforestation and phasing out fossil fuels.

In defence of the status quo, we are made to belief that asking for richer public space, safety for our children or a higher quality of live is 'Radical Activism'. 🌳🚲
