Sentences with phrase «as afforestation»

CDRMIP experiments are designed to address questions concerning CDR - induced climate «reversibility», the response of the Earth system to direct atmospheric CO2 removal (direct air capture and storage), and the CDR potential of proposed schemes such as afforestation / reforestation and ocean alkalinization.

In addition, peak flows are reduced by reservoirs, sustainable urban drainage systems (SUDS, e.g., Pasche et al. 2008), retarding basins, infiltration basins, and through targeted land management plans such as afforestation and river renaturation (Reinhardt et al. 2011).

Most low - emission scenarios involve substantial land - use change (LUC) including the expansion of bioenergy and food crops, as well as afforestation.

Further considerations on economic co-benefits are related to the access to carbon payments either within or outside the UNFCCC agreements and new income opportunities especially in developing countries (particularly for labour ‐ intensive mitigation options such as afforestation).

Implications of the inclusion of reforestation of lands with forest in exhaustion as afforestation and reforestation clean development mechanism project activities

Most low - emission scenarios involve substantial land - use change (LUC) including the expansion of bioenergy and food crops, as well as afforestation.

Not exact matches

According to him, his administration also issued the first green bond that would act as a catalyst for investments in renewable energy and afforestation projects «as we have established the Agro Rangers Unit within the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps to protect the investments recorded in agricultural sector across the country.»

This seems highly unwise, and, as I discussed in a piece on HuffPost about it, «Methane in the Twilight Zone, Episode 2,» * the more that you're planning on doing anything about climate change — i.e., lowering GHG emissions, pulling carbon out of the system through biochar, afforestation, etc — the less sense it makes.

This is called afforestation, and as I mentioned in the piece, it has already happened on a large scale in the eastern United States, the former Soviet Union, China and some other areas.

This decision defined small - scale afforestation or reforestation project activities as those that are expected to result in net anthropogenic GHG removals by sinks of less than 8 kilotonnes of carbon dioxide per year.

This increased exposure for CDR approaches, which encompass both biological (e.g. afforestation, ecosystem restoration, land management, biochar, and bio-CCS) and chemical (e.g. direct air capture, enhanced mineral weathering) techniques — is a good thing for the climate change debate: we will likely need to have scalable, sustainable, cost - effective CDR systems as well as ways to reduce our emissions to avoid catastrophic climate change.

This manual is intended to serve as a guide for conducting measurements for estimation of carbon stocks in afforestation and reforestation project activities under the clean development mechanism.

To use the idea that there might be some uncertainty about the net cooling effect of high - latitude afforestation as rational for scrapping REDD is irresponsible in the extreme.

This layer shows VCS projects categorized as REDD (Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation), IFM (Improved Forest Management) and ARR (Afforestation, Reforestation and Revegetation).

Royal Society Ranks Geoengineering Techniques As far as the Carbon Dioxide Removal techniques with the most potential: Capturing CO2 from ambient air (preferred, but not cost - effective yet); enhanced weathering, and reforestation / afforestation were ranked highly — though the last was seen to be limited by land use conflictAs far as the Carbon Dioxide Removal techniques with the most potential: Capturing CO2 from ambient air (preferred, but not cost - effective yet); enhanced weathering, and reforestation / afforestation were ranked highly — though the last was seen to be limited by land use conflictas the Carbon Dioxide Removal techniques with the most potential: Capturing CO2 from ambient air (preferred, but not cost - effective yet); enhanced weathering, and reforestation / afforestation were ranked highly — though the last was seen to be limited by land use conflicts.

We're talking proposals such as CO2 scrubbing «trees» and reforestation / afforestation programs here.
