Excerpt from ClimaTalk:
Amidst an environmental sector fraught with issues stemming from climate change and continued degradation as a result of human development, many biomes find themselves as the subjects of international policy measures. Forests are no different.
Arguably, as one of the more recognisable global environments with different characteristics in each of the world’s different climatic zones, forests play a very important role for local ecology, biodiversity, and the climate. As such, they form the basis for the ‘Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation and the role of conservation, sustainable management of forests and enhancement of forest carbon stocks in developing countries’ or REDD+ program.
