Center for Clean Air Policy (CCAP)

Location: 321, 3rd floor, Collegium Maius

CCAP will present a proposal for an integrated global approach to forestry and carbon accounting. CCAP will discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by integration of REDD and other forestry activities in developing countries into a combined framework, and discuss potential improvements to Annex I LULUCF accounting rules. We will present recommendations for comprehensive national carbon accounting, and discuss implications for leakage, interactions between developing and Annex I countries, and CCAP’s Dual Markets and other proposed funding mechanisms for REDD. The framework will be evaluated in the context of the current status of UNFCCC forest negotiations.
