Menyusul peluncuran APRIL2030, komitmen kami untuk memberikan dampak positif terhadap iklim, alam, dan masyarakat selama satu dasawarsa kedepan, kami menerima banyak tanggapan positif dan saran-saran konstruktif dari berbagai pemangku kepentingan yang memberi perhatian atas ambisi kami ini.

Kami juga menerima tanggapan kritis dari Environmental Paper Network, yang merilis pernyataan tentang APRIL2030 di laman mereka.

Masyarakat dunia telah mendesak semua pihak, terutama sektor swasta, untuk menjawab tantangan pencapaian agenda pembangunan 2030 seraya tetap menjaga target iklim dan meningkatkan perlindungan alam. Meskipun tantangan ini sangat berat, perusahaan, seperti APRIL, memilih untuk menjawabnya dan bertindak meski ditengah ketidakpastian akibat pandemi.

APRIL2030 bukan sebuah klaim heroik. Komitmen ini juga bukan sebuah pernyataan bahwa kami memiliki semua solusi. Komitmen ini dibangun atas dasar keinginan tulus untuk dapat berkontribusi terhadap aksi global dan memberikan dampak positif bagi Indonesia.

APRIL2030 terdiri atas empat komitmen dan 18 target terukur berbasis ilmu pengetahuan untuk menangani masalah mendesak di bidang lingkungan, masyarakat, dan sosial-ekonomi.

Pada 2030, kami menargetkan mencapai emisi nol bersih dari penggunaan lahan dan pengurangan emisi karbon dalam proses produksi kami, pencapaian terukur di sektor lingkungan, dan nol kemiskinan ekstrem di komunitas kami seraya bertransformasi menjadi bisnis yang berkelanjutan.

Seperti yang telah kami tekankan pada saat peluncuran, progress terkait target ini akan dijamin secara independen dan dilaporkan secara transparan berdasarkan atas 35 indikator spesifik. Komitmen, target, dan indikator APRIL2030 dapat dilihat di situs mikro APRIL2030.

Kebijakan Pengelolaan Hutan Berkelanjutan 2.0
Kami tegaskan kembali bahwa komitmen kami, yang dilandasi Kebijakan Pengelolaan Hutan Berkelanjutan (SFMP 2.0) tetap menjadi prinsip yang mendasari APRIL2030.

Selama penerapannya dalam lima tahun terakhir, kami mencatat kemajuan yang berkelanjutan. Pabrik berjalan dengan 100% plantation fiber sejak Desember 2015, serta tidak ada perluasan area penanaman baru maupun penggundulan hutan di konsesi APRIL. Meskipun ada gugatan lahan aktif, tidak ada konflik sosial di wilayah kegiatan kami. Hanya ada sedikit kerugian akibat kebakaran dan perlindungan aktif serta pengelolaan 370.000 ha kawasan konservasi dan restorasi,

Kinerja APRIL terkait SFMP 2.0 berada di bawah pengawasan independen Komite Penasihat Pemangku Kepentingan (SAC). KPMG PRI Kanada melakukan verifikasi tahunan atas kinerja APRIL terkait penerapan SFMP 2.0 dan membuat laporan publik tentang temuan mereka dan rencana aksi APRIL untuk menghentikan kegiatannya sebagai akibat laporan tersebut. Kerangka verifikasi beserta indikatornya merupakan hasil konsultasi publik dan menyertakan masukan dari pemangku kepentingan eksternal, termasuk LSM.

Laporan audit, yang secara transparan memastikan kemajuan yang telah dicapai APRIL dalam melaksanakan SFMP perusahaan dan mengidentifikasi peluang untuk perbaikan, telah dipublikasikan di Dasbor Keberlanjutan perusahaan. Kami secara aktif bekerja untuk menyelesaikan masalah kepemilikan tanah melalui Prosedur Penyelesaian Sengketa Tanah, yang memberi petunjuk penyelesaian dan resolusi sengketa, terlepas dari kompleksitas atau lama waktu yang dibutuhkan untuk mencapai penyelesaian. Hal ini didukung oleh keikutsertaan kami dalam forum multi-pemangku kepentingan.

Pengelolaan lahan gambut
Kami mengakui bahwa operasional kami di lahan gambut adalah tantangan utama dan kami memiliki kewajiban hukum untuk mengelola konsesi tersebut dengan cara yang paling bertanggung jawab. Untuk melakukan ini, kami telah banyak berinvestasi dalam ilmu pengetahuan, alat, dan praktik pengelolaan terbaik untuk menyeimbangkan produksi dari ekosistem ini dengan konservasi dan restorasi.

Kami mengakui bahwa kegiatan hutan tanaman kami di lahan gambut menghasilkan emisi gas rumah kaca. Dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, kami telah mengumpulkan data untuk mengukur dan memantau emisi ini di berbagai jenis penggunaan lahan untuk memberikan informasi terkait pendekatan kami terhadap pengurangan emisi dan mitigasi.

Sertifikasi hutan internasional
Sejak 2010, Grup APRIL telah disertifikasi sesuai standar PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification), yang memastikan bahwa semua bahan mentah yang masuk ke pabrik berasal dari sumber tidak kontroversial. Sekitar 87% dari total kawasan konsesi sudah dijamin oleh sistem sertifikasi Pengelolaan Hutan Berkelanjutan PEFC, yang memberikan pengakuan independen atas praktik pengelolaan hutan bertanggung jawab APRIL.

Sebagai bagian dari proses yang sedang berlangsung untuk mengakhiri pemisahan dirinya dari Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), APRIL telah mengakui dampak operasinya sejak 1993, seperti diidentifikasi melalui penilaian dasar FSC. Kami berkomitmen untuk ikut terlibat dalam proses perbaikan konstruktif dan kuat untuk mengakhiri pemisahan diri kami dari FSC.

Laporan LSM
Artikel EPN juga menyertakan rujukan ke sejumlah laporan LSM. APRIL telah memberikan tanggapan terperinci berdasarkan atas fakta untuk menanggapi semua masalah yang diangkat dalam publikasi tersebut. Tanggapan kami dapat dilihat di laman ini. Kami telah menawarkan LSM kesempatan untuk mendapatkan informasi dari tangan pertama tentang kebenaran hasil penyelidikan kami, tetapi sampai saat ini tidak ada satu pun dari mereka menyatakan minat atas undangan ini.

APRIL tetap terbuka untuk berdialog secarakonstruktif dengan para pemangku kepentingan seraya terus berupaya untuk mencapai kemajuan dalam penerapan komitmen keberlanjutan kami dan pencapaian APRIL2030.

Method

Waste disposed is recorded through various means of measurement including estimation of weight by waste type. Particular waste types as described above are measured as a wet waste and converted to a bone dry (BD) weight. The wet waste weight is multiplied by the consistency of each waste type to determine the BD. The consistency is predetermined by the lab.

APRIL follows the international GHG protocol as developed by WRI/WBCSD to develop its emissions profile. The total emissions measured as emissions intensity is calculated based on tonnes of Scope 1 and 2 Mill Greenhouse Gas Emissions per tonne of product (paper, pulp and viscose). The emissions boundary scope covers gate-to-gate (wood processing in wood yard until pulp, paper and viscose production) of the three main GHGs: CO2, CH4, and N2O.

Baseline

Method

To quantify the total GHG emission and removals across APRIL’s land bank from land use, APRIL follows the GHG Protocol Agricultural Guidance and IPCC Guidelines for Agricultural, Forestry, and Other Land Use. To detect the land cover change within the look-back period, i.e. 20 years APRIL utilized the remotely sensed data.

The GHG emission will be calculated as the total of carbon stock changes in woody biomass and soil organic carbon and include all major carbon fluxes such as peat decomposition, plantation growth and harvesting, and fires.

To quantify the amount of carbon unit to balance the emission, the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS), the Climate, Community and Biodiversity Standards (CCB), or other internationally accepted standard will be used.
