A new K1 indicator is included in the 2022 Outcome Indicator Framework update. Data show that the extent of tropical deforestation and global scarcity-weighted blue water use associated with UK commodity consumption have both steadily decreased since 2005. bit.ly/25yrEnvPlan
This image is a visual representation of the following data trends. UK consumption of crop, cattle-related and timber commodities in 2017 was responsible for an estimated 31,126 hectares of agriculture-driven tropical deforestation worldwide, a long-term decrease of 58% since the time series began in 2005. Comparing the 2017 footprint with 2012 reveals a short-term decrease of 41% and a decrease (6%) was also observed in the latest year (2017).
