Reduced-impact logging in Borneo to minimize carbon emissions and impacts on sensitive habitats while maintaining timber yields

•RIL-C practices reduce emissions by 33% to 46% by improving logging efficiency.•Sensitive habitats can be protected from logging without reducing timber yields.•These offer large outcomes for Paris Climate Agreement and Aichi targets. We define two implementation levels for reduced-impact logging f...
