NAIROBI, Sept. 19 (Xinhua) -- African countries have pledged to tame illegal trade in timber and other forest products by ensuring that the sub-sector makes a meaningful contribution to the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
adidas nmd xr1 mens white uk , a conservationist said on Tuesday.
Kenya's Chief Conservator of Forest Emilio Mugo said representatives from Kenya, Uganda, Mozambique, Madagascar, Tanzania and Zanzibar (Tanzania) who met in Nairobi on Tuesday agreed to take stern action against those caught in the illegal trade of the products.
"Illegal trade in timber and forest products is not only degrading the rich forests assets of the region but also represents an enormous loss in economic values and livelihood opportunities to the countries
adidas nmd xr1 uk sale ," Mugo said at the end of a two-day meeting.
He noted that the meeting marks a significant step forward in efforts to ensure timber trade in Eastern Africa is managed in a way that brings equitable benefits to all.
Mugo said that the meeting agreed to assist people with timber products to benefit from the products by ensuring that they reap maximum profit from the consumers.
The meeting followed the Zanzibar Declaration meeting that was signed in September 2015 during the XIV World Forestry Congress in South Africa.
Since signing the declaration, the countries have seen huge progress in addressing rampant illegal trade in the member countries.
They agreed develop a mechanism to collaborate on implementation of trade governed under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).
"We have jointly agreed to pursue the Global Environmental Facility funding opportunity to help improve our forest cover and also fight climate change effects," Mugo added.
The members also agreed to deal with produce seized from illegal trade and raise fund to help improve the state of environment in the region.
The Kenya Forest Service is partnering with the Timber Manufacturers Association in establishing tree seedlings to help achieve and surpass her set goal of 10 percent tree cover.
The tree nurseries in the country currently produce 2.5 million indigenous seedlings and are set to increase to 4.5 million.
"This will immensely boost the rehabilitation program throughout the country," TMA chairman Benson Gitau said.
He noted that trees will be planted especially in arid and semi arid regions to help reduce land degradation.

SYDNEY, July 19 (Xinhua) -- For the first time in five years, a northern hairy-nosed wombat has been born in the Australian state of Queensland, it was announced Wednesday.
The native creature, born at the Richard Underwood Nature Refuge
adidas nmd xr4 uk , 500 kilometers west of Brisbane, is one of the rarest species in the world with an estimated 250 left in the wild.
"When we started this program in 2009, the northern hairy-nosed wombat was down to just 138 wombats left in the wild, at Epping Forest National Park," Queensland Environment Minister Steven Miles explained in a statement obtained by Xinhua.
"The Underwood family

To protect the troubled marsupial, the nature reserve is surrounded by predator-proof fencing and includes a number of water stations for the wombats.
Staff and wildlife officers at the facility can also monitor the behaviour of the animals, with the reserve's state of the art wildlife monitoring equipment and cameras.
"It's been a long wait for the wombat specialist team," Miles said

"But finally it was confirmed that the joey has successfully left the pouch."
Although researchers say, the animal was shy at first, they expect the joey to become a lot more active now that it has stepped out of the pouch.
"This little joey is an important new arrival.
