The breakdown is shown below and illustrates the detail available in the scenarios land-use database, which includes nearly twenty different land-use change types.

The net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions strategy aims to avoid emissions from all economic sectors by 2050. Although the reduction of GHGs has been con
Achieving net-zero climate targets requires some level of carbon dioxide removal. Current assessments focus on tonnes of CO2removed, without specifying what form these removals will take. Here, we show that countries’ climate pledges require approximately 1 (0.9–1.1) billion ha of land for remova...
IDH is aiming to respond to that question through the development of Production, Protection and Inclusion (PPI) compacts. These are agreements between public, private and civil society parties to enhance productive land and secure livelihoods in exchange for forest protection. These compacts ar...
