A Six-step Approach for scaling low-emission food systems: Evidence and guidelines por Amahnui, George Amenchwi, Sylvester, Janelle Marie, Vanegas Cubillos, Martha, Castro Nunez, Augusto

“…To illustrate the approach’s application, we present a case study on scaling silvopastoral systems undertaken during the implementation of a project aimed at delivering climate-change mitigation and peacebuilding outcomes in the Colombian Amazon. The guidelines presented here emphasize the need for scaling practitioners to identify key delivery partners at the nexus between government SDG priorities (national and regional) and food system GHG mitigation opportunities, to secure political and social support for scaling low-emission food systems.…”

An expert system model for mapping tropical wetlands and peatlands reveals South America as the largest contributor por Gumbricht, Thomas, Román Cuesta, Rosa María, Verchot, Louis V., Herold, Martin, Wittmann, Florian, Householder, Ethan, Herold, Nadine, Murdiyarso, Daniel

“…Unlike current understanding, our estimates suggest that South America and not Asia contributes the most to tropical peatland area and volume (ca. 44% for both) partly related to some yet unaccounted extended deep deposits but mainly to extended but shallow peat in the Amazon Basin. Brazil leads the peatland area and volume contribution. …”
