UPDATES ON WORK STREAMS

WORKSTREAM #1: OPERATIONAL EMISSIONS

Background: This workstream is producing a

framework which RSPO members can use to

measure, monitor and report GHGs within their

operations as well as identifying voluntary actions

on GHG management. The lead author of this

workstream is Cecile Bessou from CIRAD.

Status: Members of this group met in Singapore

on 5 & 6 October, 2010. The group, led by the

lead author, reported back to the full GHG WG2 on

their progress since the last sub-group meeting in

May 2010.

Key updates include: (1) refinement of goal and

scope; (2) refinement of the system boundary; (3)

summary of literature analysis on 22 LCA-based

studies, 4 regulatory guidelines, 5 methodologies

and reporting tools, and available background

data; (4) Input data required by user; and (5)

framework tool design.

GHG WG2 members spent some time in

discussions during breakout groups brainstorming

what information would be feasible to collect from

plantation and mill levels.

Next steps towards RT8 (Nov 8 -11, 2010):

Activity/ output

Complete compilation of ‘generic’ values including

minimum and maximum values

Prepare a poster illustrating structure and

functionalities of the framework tool

Organise side-event for RT8 to allow for participant

feedback on structure of framework tool

Attached are:

Workstream #1 progress presentation at GHG

WG2 meeting 3 by Cecile Bessou (CIRAD) (see

page 10)

List of group members (see page 15)

WORKSTREAM #2: PEATLAND WG

Background: This workstream is focusing on

emissions related to operational management of

peat and is exploring and developing business

models for optimising sustainability of existing oil

palm systems. The co-chairs of this workstream

are Rosediana Suharto (IPOC) and Faizal Parish

(Global Environmental Centre).

Status: The group has met twice since being

convened, with the most recent meeting held in

Kuala Lumpur between 22 and 24 September,

2010. Faizal Parish reported back to the GHG WG2

on their progress to date.

Key updates since the last GHG WG2 meeting in

May, include: (1) completion of literature review on

carbon flux estimates and GHG emissions from oil

palm cultivation in Tropical Peatlands in South

East Asia (outline of review can be viewed on page

29; (2) further updates on workplan and budget;

(3) discussion of the draft Best Management

Practice guidelines; (4) arrangement of 3 field

assessments in Selangor, Sarawak and Riau

between 2010 and 2011.

Next steps towards RT8 (Nov 8-11, 2010):

Activity/ output

Report on key progress and targets of the group

Complete draft of Best Management Practices

guidelines

Present literature review on Peatland and GHG

emissions

Complete management and rehabilitation options for

HCVF, buffer strips and abandoned areas.

Attached are:

Revised workplan summary (see page 16)

WORKSTREAM #3: SCIENTIFIC PANEL

Background: The scientific panel is reviewing

existing information about land use and land use

change and its impact on GHGs including

identifying gaps and areas of uncertainty in the

current body of information. This information will

be used to develop a series of future scenarios to

examine the impact of different land management

options. The lead author of this workstream is

Fahmuddin Agus (IAARD, GAPKI).

Status: The group has met three times since being

convened, with the most recent meeting held in

Kuala Lumpur between 24 and 25 September,

2010. Fahmuddin reported back to the GHG WG2

on their progress to date.

Key updates include: (1) Finalization of ToRs; (2)

completion (almost) of land use change matrix for

Papua; (3) continuation of analysis and research

on burning effects on peat; (4) continuation of

work on the selection of emission factors; (5)

commencement of analysis on land conversion for

the main oil palm producing countries;


Activity/ output

Complete above ground and below ground carbon

stocks, particularly for mineral soils

Provision of a sample land use change matrix

Completion of a framework for calculating carbon

using a mock-spreadsheet

Attached are:


WG2 meeting 3 by Fahmuddin Agus (see page

36 )


WORKSTREAM #4: POLICY PANEL

Background: The purpose of this panel will be to

focus on the legal, institutional and policy barriers

to implementing strategies to reduce GHG

emissions – particularly those related to land-use

change.

Status: The GHG WG2 members spent some time

in discussions in breakout groups brainstorming

what issues the policy panel should look into.

Common themes brought up included: (1)

Feasibility of implementing REDD programmes in a

oil palm context; (2) lack of harmonization of

regulatory frameworks; (3) Feasibility of

implementing land-swaps


The co-chairs and facilitators are to analyse all the

points raised during this session and provide

feedback to the WG2 about possible roles of the

policy panel.

WORKSTREAM #5: EMISSIONS FROM OTHER

RSPO MEMBERS

Background: This workstream is focusing on the

activities being undertaken by RSPO membership

categories other than producers and processors,

including investors, NGOs etc, to reduce and

manage their emissions.

Status: Participants that belong to this

membership category summarised and presented

to the WG2 the voluntary actions that their

respective companies were taking to reducing and

addressing their GHG emissions.

WORKSTREAM #6: ENGAGEMENT WITH RSPO

MEMBERS

Background: This workstream is collecting

information on the voluntary actions which RSPO

members are already planning or implementing to

better understand and manage GHGs from

production and processing.

The data collected for this workstream will feed

into workstream #1. This workstream hopes to

capture information about best management

practices that are currently being employed by

producers/ processors in terms of addressing

and/or reducing GHG emissions.

Status: Participants that belong to this

membership category summarised and presented

to the WG2 the voluntary actions that their

respective companies were taking to reducing and

addressing their GHG emissions.

(SimeDarby) to provide an overview of activities

already underway to address and reduce GHG

emissions.

Communications

The WG2 discussed ways to ensure that

communication of the activities and progress of

RSPO GHG WG2 is consistently communicated and

reaches all relevant stakeholders.


Activity/ output

Develop 2-4 page briefing note which

communicates to RSPO members, general public,

government about the GHG WG2’s: (1) reason for

convening; (2) aims/objectives; (3) progress of

workstreams; (4) access to further information
