RT null T1 Global Campaign for Nature A1 Costa Rica, K1 nature protection K1 Biodiversity YR 2019 FD 2019 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/28782 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/28782 NO This initiative is base on the concept that a large proportion, if not all of the required removals to achieve the 2/1.5 degree goals could be achieved by conserving and enhancing natural sinks, while better land management and agricultural practices could avoid significant amounts of ongoing emissions. Further, when the protection and restoration of natural sinks is achieved through the stewardship of Indigenous Peoples and local communities, securing collective land and forest rights represents a far more equitable and cost-effective way to achieve climate mitigation and adaptation targets than other carbon capture and storage measures.
