Nature-based solutions for climate change mitigation

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) scenarios for emission reductions are clear. In order to keep temperature rise close to the Paris Agreement goal of 1.5°C we must achieve net zero CO2 emissions by 2050. The scenarios show that this will require, in addition to a massive and ra...

short_description	<p>This report will assesses the current state of knowledge on the size of the contribution that nature based solutions can make and the types of action they will involve. It will discuss the importance of social and environmental safeguards, how nature based solutions can be financed and the role of offsets. Most importantly, it will consider the potential of nature-based solutions for mitigation to also contribute to climate adaptation and other pressing challenges.</p>
