Ecological restoration of national parks : proceedings of a symposium
Protected areas play a major role in reducing climate changing carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. Fifteen percent of the worlds terrestrial carbon stock - 312 gigatonnes - are stored in protected areas around the world. Protected areas also serve as natural buffers against climate impacts and other disasters, providing space for floodwaters to disperse, stabilizing soil against landslides and blocking storm surges.

Este libro articula claramente, por vez primera, cómo las áreas protegidas contribuyen significativamente a reducir los impactos del cambio climático y qué es lo que necesitarían para contribuir más. En un momento en el que entramos en una escala de negociaciones sin precedentes acerca del clima y la biodiversidad, es importante que estos mensajes lleguen alto y claro a los decisores de políticas y que sean traducidos en políticas eficaces y en mecanismos de financiamiento.
Le présent rapport expose clairement, et pour la première fois, à quel point les aires protégées contribuent à diminuer les effets des changements climatiques et ce quil faudrait faire pour quelles y contribuent encore plus. Au moment où nous nous engageons dans des négociations sans précédent au sujet du climat et de la biodiversité, il est impératif que les décideurs comprennent ces messages de façon nette et précise et quils contribuent à lélaboration de politiques fructueuses et à linstauration de mécanismes de financement efficaces.
