Small-scale farms in the western Brazilian Amazon: can they benefit from carbon trade? por Carpentier, Chantal Line, Vosti, Stephen A., Witcover, Julie

“…Carbon flow payments, on the other hand, do not provide an adequate economic incentive to slow deforestation because forests are more or less in equilibrium and thus do not sequester additional carbon. If the Kyoto Protocol were amended to allow for conservation of forest carbon, a few potential CDMs could provide inexpensive carbon offsets, alleviate poverty, and preserve biodiversity. …”

Fires in Indonesia: causes, costs and policy implications por Center for International Forestry Research

“…Consideration should be given to including peat lands in the second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol. As the severity and impacts of fires increases worldwide, there needs to be more focus on analyzing the policy and economic factors of fires.…”

The architecture of proposed REDD schemes after Bali: facing critical choices por Karsenty, A.

“…The scheme could have a deleterious impact on the carbon market through massive hot air creation (fake emission reductions), and ultimately on the current international climate change regime derived from the cap-and-trade architecture adopted by the Kyoto Protocol. The political economy of avoided deforestation is frequently overlooked as is the issue of additionality, although both of them are more critical with deforestation at national level than they could be with project-based CDM. …”

Bioenergy and agriculture: Promises and challenges: Potential of carbon payments for bioenergy por Knudsen, Odin

“…The result could be not only a better global environment, but increased revenues for farmers, more energy self-suff iciency for rural communities, and preservation of natural forests and biodiversity. Through the Kyoto Protocol, the world community moved toward realizing the potential of agriculture for mitigating climate change, but not enough to gain the full benefits. …”

Carbon forestry and local livelihoods : a case study on poverty in Uganda por Ellingsen, Tove

“…The Green Resources carbon forestry plantation in northern Uganda is a particularly interesting case in a Swedish perspective, because the Swedish Energy Agency is committed to buying its carbon emissions reductions within a clean development mechanism (CDM) project under the Kyoto protocol. This thesis examined how wealth is perceived and experienced by the villagers in the area surrounding the Green Resources plantation, and how different wealth groups perceive and have been affected by Green Resources interventions associated with the plantation. …”

Advancing forest-based carbon trading in Nepal: Policy challenges and agroforestry opportunities por Chaudhary, Arbind, Babu, Suresh Chandra

“…Nepal has adopted this approach in line with international agreements such as the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement. As one of the major strategies, the country has sought to capitalize on its forest resources to generate carbon credits and attract international climate finance.…”

Carbon sequestration and farm income in West Africa: Identifying best management practices for smallholder agricultural systems in northern Ghana por González Estrada, E., Rodríguez, L.C., Walen, V.K., Naab, J.B., Koo, Jawoo, Jones, James W., Herrero, Mario, Thornton, Philip K.

“…The interest in agricultural soils as global storage of carbon has increased in recent years, along with the prospect of farmers' participation in payment schemes under the Clean Development Mechanism of the Kyoto protocol. Thus, a better understanding of agricultural practices that can increase soil carbon and enhance the livelihoods of farmers is necessary, particularly in smallholder farming systems of West Africa. …”
