# High ambition level: full substitution of conventional selective felling with RIL techniques as of 2010, and forest plantations targeted at supplying 40% of the global wood demand by 2050. This represents a plausible future development of plantation growth ([[Brown, 2000]]). | # High ambition level: full substitution of conventional selective felling with RIL techniques as of 2010, and forest plantations targeted at supplying 40% of the global wood demand by 2050.

The ambitious improvements in forest management will result in considerably less land used for forestry by 2050 (about 10 million km2, or one third smaller area than under the baseline scenario) (see | The ambitious improvements in forest management will result in considerably less land used for forestry by 2050 (about 10 million km2, or one third smaller area than under the baseline scenario) (see the figure above). With the reduced forest area, and the assumed positive effects of {{abbrTemplate|RIL}} techniques, biodiversity loss caused by forestry will be reduced. For the lower ambition level, gains will be smaller with forestry area expanding well over 3 million km2, and less biodiversity loss prevented. | ||
