Summary
Proponents of industrial tree plantations argue that the plantations are "reforestation", increasing the area of forest, providing jobs for local people, or reducing pressure on natural forests. The reality in Cambodia exposes these arguments as propaganda. This report examines two major companies' operations in Cambodia, the impacts observed to date on the local populations and the environment, and the associated human rights violations.
