Best Answer

Preservatively-treated (pressure-treated) wood does not meet the standard, unless the wood was heat-treated and stamped HT prior to preservative treatment.

What type of pesticide is used to make pallets IPPC compliant?

Bromomethane is the pesticide that is used to make pallets IPPC-compliant.Specifically, the letters IPPC function as an acronym for International Plant Protection Convention. The IPPC requires that pallets shipped across national borders to be non-supportive of the spread of invasive insects and plant diseases. According to the IPPC's ISPM (International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures) 15, an approved agency supervises chemical fumigation by methyl bromide, after which the stamp MB is applied. A greener treatment of raw wood turns to maintaining heating at 132.8ºF (56ºC+) for 30 minutes, after which the letters HT are stamped.


Do crates made from plywood have to be stamped by IPPC?

The IPPC standard only impacts packaging using solid wood (both coniferous and non-coniferous). Engineered wood products such as corrugated, plywood, OSB, etc. are exempt. If there is any solid wood used in the packaging, the unit must be marked accordingly.

What is meant by ippc in a wooden pallet?

IPPC stands for International Plant Protection Convention and is supposed to indicate that the wood has been treated to prevent transport of pests via wood packaging.The IPPC standard(ISPM-15) allows for two treatment methods - heat treatment and fumigation with methyl bromide. Heat treatment will likely become the most popular method due to environmental concerns caused by methyl bromide used to fumigate packaging. The standard calls for heat-treated material to be heated to 56 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes. This can be achieved by using a dry kiln or any other approved heat treatment chamber/device.

Pallets are stamped with IPPC mark do I still need quarantine Declaration?

You do not need Certification documents unless the destination country requires bark free or debarked solid wood packaging materials. Go to the following link to identify countries that require the additional standards. http://www.nwpca.com/_INTLRegulations/ISPM15CountryUpdate.htm

If man's contribution to global warming is bad how does this compare with natural occurrences such as Hawaii's most active volcano which has been erupting continuously since 1983.?

I don't know the exact figure (because I didn't spend enough time looking for it). But the IPPC FAQ pages include this statement: "Since the start of the industrial era (about 1750), the overall effect of human activities on climate has been a warming influence. The human impact on climate during this era greatly exceeds that due to known changes in natural processes, such as solar changes and volcanic eruptions." http://ipcc-wg1.ucar.edu/wg1/FAQ/wg1_faq-2.1.html Good source for answers on climate is from climate scientists is RealClimate at http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2008/07/once-more-unto-the-bray/#more-583. Like most things, finding answers on climate change is a tricky business. There are probably many more sites maintained by people who know nothing about science or just enough to confuse themselves than there are maintained by scientists who don't have a lot of spare time. Furthermore, there are vested interests in maintaining the status quo who seek high and wide for contrarian scientists to make it seem as though there's a debate about whether or not global warming is taking place. There is, but not among climatologists. A recent University Of Chicago survey considered the views of scientists in many fields on the subject: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/01/090119210532.htm. Sorry I don't have a more precise figure, but you can find good estimates online. Just consider your sources.


Does global warming damage your food production?

There is no evidence that global warming would have any significant affect on the overall food supply. If warming becomes a real issue local variation of crops may be a valid response.The political spectrum will naturally disagree. The United Nations makes several claims that widespread drought and an increase in storms could cause production issues. The truth is something that time will tell.A:It is difficult to predict the future, but in 2001 the United Nations InterGovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPPC) issued a Report: Climate Change 2001: Working Group II: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability. Here are some of the suggested impacts:Climate change will affect crop yields and irrigation demands.Water Resources will be affected: water supply, quality and competition for water.Moderately warmer weather and increased CO2 in the atmosphere may help some crop growth (up 30% in the case of rice, soy and wheat), but with increased temperatures the grain yield drops 10% for every 1˚C rise above 26˚C.Agricultural areas may suffer erosion from increased wind and water from short term changes in weather.The growth of agricultural pests (weeds, insects and pathogens) under climate change is being studied with varying results. For example, higher temperatures increase the severity of rice leaf blast epidemics in cool subtropical zones, but in warm humid subtropics higher temperatures lower the severity of the epidemics.Farm animals are affected by warmer temperatures, influencing their performances in growth, milk and wool production, reproduction, health and well-being.Increased temperatures may lead to increased demand for water from agriculture and wildlife, including farm livestock. It may also lead to reduced water availability.Adaption costs for agriculture, including retraining farmers for new practices, as well as the provision of new irrigation may be considerable.The cost of basic food will rise, especially with temperature rises of more than 2.5˚C, as agriculture will not be able to absorb increased costs."Africa is projected to experience marked reductions in yield, decreases in production, and increases in the risk of hunger as a result of climate change."
