Everything Is Connected: Climate and biodiversity in a fragile world
/document-library/everything-connected-climate-and-biodiversity-fragile-world
This publication brings together eight original articles by experts to tackle head on some of the most difficult questions facing us all: How a stable climate and a productive biosphere can be secured together. Why this is an opportunity for green growth. And how a closer partnership between the multilateral environmental agreements, in particular the Convention on Biological Diversity and the Framework Convention on Climate Change, can help. It also brings together the experience of one of the world’s megadiverse countries in tackling these challenges: Brazil. The publication focuses on one of the most promising mechanisms for mitigating climate change: Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD).
