Forest Governance

Focusing on forest policy and governance, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of historical discussions surrounding forests and their role in climate mitigation. It critiques current international climate and biodiversity targets, emphasizing the need for biodiverse and resilient forests to act as effective carbon sinks. The author argues that existing governance frameworks fall short and proposes innovative policy measures, including quantity governance systems targeting deforestation drivers and regulatory protections for old-growth forests, to enhance sustainability and conservation efforts.
