Of itself, environmentalists see this as a wasteful use of tropical wood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">On paper, the Tokyo committee&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tokyo2020.org\/en\/games\/sustainability\/data\/sus-procurement-timber-code.pdf\"><span class=\"s2\">sustainable sourcing code<\/span><\/a>\u00a0requires that the timber it uses is legal, planned, and \u201cconsiderate\u201d towards ecosystems, indigenous peoples and workers, who should be appropriately protected.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">However, it has no obligation for full traceability back to the forest of origin, even when timber is sourced from high risk countries, such as Indonesia and Malaysia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Hana Heineken, a senior campaigner for Rainforest Action Network, said: \u201cThe overwhelming majority of wood used [in the Tokyo stadium] was uncertified plywood extracted from tropical rainforests in Indonesia, an epicentre of biodiversity that is suffering from one of the world&#8217;s highest rates of deforestation.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">A further 3% of the panels used came from Malaysian plywood, supplied by companies such as Shin Yang, which has been linked to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.survivalinternational.org\/about\/shinyang\"><span class=\"s2\">destructive<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and potentially illegal logging practices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">In 2017, indigenous leaders from the Malaysian section of Borneo <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-japan-olympics-landrights\/tokyo-urged-to-stop-using-cheap-timber-in-centerpiece-olympic-stadium-idUSKBN1861TG\" target=\"_blank\">called on<\/a> the Tokyo committee to stop sourcing timber from the forests of Sarawak because of the industry&#8217;s impact on traditional lands and life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Indonesia and Malaysia were among the top 10 countries suffering dense tree cover loss in 2016, much of it linked to oil palm, pulp and paper industries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Around the world, an area of forest the size of New Zealand &#8211; 29.7m hectares &#8211; disappeared that year, the highest level on record.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p
