RI should adopt logging moratorium policy

"The logging moratorium should become a government policy, instead of being a forest guard, and receiving wages from forest and environment destroyers as offered by REDD," Walhi executive director, Chalid Muhammad said in a discussion here Friday.
REDD (reduction of emissions from deforestation) in the developing countries is a mechanism offered by the world to solve forest destruction, he said.
Regarding the REDD, Northern countries offered an incentive to Southern contries in a bid to reduce emissions and solve deforestation, Chalid said without elaborating.
