ABSTRACT: Implementation of forestry activities as a climate change mitigation
option is likely to result in a range of outcomes in addition to carbon
sequestration and these include changes with respect to environmental, social
and economic aspects. These impacts to the extent when positive are deemed “co-benefit” and if adverse and uncertain, imply risk. It
is important to recognize that implementation of forestry mitigation activities
can have varied environmental, socio-economic co-benefits and/or risks. Further,
there is no general agreement on attribution of co-benefits and risks to specific
forestry mitigation activities. An overarching risk to mitigation potential
that could be realised by implementation of forestry activities is climate
change. But, overall, forestry mitigation activities also contribute to the
sustainable development agenda. Maximizing co-benefits of forestry mitigation
measures can increase efficiency in achieving the objectives of other
international agreements.
