Abstract

In part 1, the presently available environmental schemes applicable to the oil palm industry have been outlined. At present environmentally speaking, the Malaysian oil palm industry is attempting to secure recognition for the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) Certification Scheme which is based on a Malaysian standard drawn up by the industry. This move was spearheaded with the support from industry organisations and members facilitated by MPOB. The MSPO scheme will be mandatory for the Malaysian oil palm industry in the near future and is parallel to the Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil scheme (ISPO). This paper advocates the establishment of a national scheme for environmentally friendly oil palm products based on the ISO 14000 family of standards. With this proposed claim, Malaysian palm oil and oil palm products can then be marketed or branded as environmentally friendly products. As the ISO 14000 family of standards fully supports the environmental sustainability aspect, products accepted as being environmentally friendly can be deemed to be produced sustainably. Since the scheme is based on the ISO 14000 family of standards and independently certified as such by independent third party assessors, this scheme will have a good chance of being accepted by overseas consumers and buyers of Malaysian palm oil and oil palm products. Keywords: Palm oil, environmentally friendly, sustainability, ISO 14000 standards, independent certification, MSPO, environment labelling, branding.

马来西亚油棕工业-环境问题和现状:第2部分:替代未来的环境方向
在第1部分中,概述了目前适用于油棕行业的环境方案。目前,马来西亚油棕行业正试图获得马来西亚可持续棕榈油(MSPO)认证计划的认可,该计划是基于该行业制定的马来西亚标准。这一举措得到了由MPOB推动的行业组织和成员的支持。MSPO计划将在不久的将来成为马来西亚油棕行业的强制性计划,并与印度尼西亚可持续棕榈油计划(ISPO)平行。本文主张在iso14000系列标准的基础上,建立国家环保油棕产品方案。有了这一提议,马来西亚棕榈油和油棕产品就可以作为环保产品进行销售或打上品牌。由于ISO 14000系列标准完全支持环境可持续性方面,被认可为环境友好的产品可以被视为可持续生产。由于该计划以ISO 14000系列标准为基础,并由独立的第三方评估机构独立认证,因此该计划将很有可能被马来西亚棕榈油和油棕产品的海外消费者和买家所接受。关键词:棕榈油,环保,可持续性,ISO 14000标准,独立认证,MSPO,环境标签,品牌。
