Pew Centre on Global Climate Change: The Pew Center report, entitled “Land Use and Global Climate Change: Forests, Land Management and the Kyoto Protocol,” was written by two internationally acknowledged experts on the issue. It explores whether land use and forestry activities can provide the same long-term benefit for the global climate system as direct reductions of greenhouse gas emissions. It also reviews the international negotiations on this issue to date, and suggests questions that must be answered before land management can become an effective part of the solution to climate change.
