The Little REDD Book: A Guide to Governmental and Non-Governmental Proposals for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation

The Global Canopy Programme

Location: 285, 2nd floor, Collegium Maius

Can’t see the wood for the trees? The Little REDD Book is a guide to Governmental and Non-Governmental proposals for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation, drawing on independent comparative analyses by the Prince’s Rainforests Project and many others. Issues underlying REDD are complex and diverse, and as urgency builds in the countdown to COP15 in Copenhagen it can be hard to keep up with how REDD is developing and who will benefit. The book provides a framework for analysing and comparing current and future proposals, aiming to help inform discussion and progress at this critical time.
