Produktinformationen zu „Certified Tropical Timber and Consumer Behaviour (PDF)“
Boycotting tropical timber reduces its economic value and provides an incentive to burn down forests, making them available for subsequent agricultural use or livestock farming. In contrast, a certification scheme for sustainability produced timber (tropical or non-tropical) protects the forests by raising their economic value.
This study examines the impact of a certification scheme on German demand for tropical timber. A partial-equilibrium model is developed for the German tropical timber market as a whole as well as for five important submarkets representing 50% of the total demand. The results reveal that a credible certification scheme can induce a significant expansion of demand for sustainability produced tropical timber. This holds true for a scheme restricted to Germany as well as for an OECD-wide approach.
