L’analyse de situation se concentre principalement sur les palmiers à huile dans le contexte de la conservation de la biodiversité à partir de la littérature publiée avant le 31 janvier 2018, et vise à fournir une alternative constructive
The situation analysis primarily focuses on oil palm in the context of biodiversity conservation based on literature published before 31 January 2018, and aims to provide a constructive pathway to addressing sustainability challenges in the palm oil industry.
The protection and revival of degraded and deforested land is the need of the hour. In order to tackle the issues that arise as a consequence of degradation and deforestation, principles of forest landscape restoration are being globally promoted. The Bonn Challenge is a global effort to bring 150 million hectares of deforested and degraded land into restoration by 2020 and 350 million hectares by 2030.
Este documento recoge los resultados del proceso de sistematización de la experiencia de implementación de las medidas robustas de Adaptación basada en Ecosistemas en las comunidades campesinas de Canchayllo y Miraflores (Reserva Paisajística Nor Yauyos-Cochas, Perú), que se llevaron a cabo entre marzo de 2013 y noviembre de 2015.
These guidelines are designed to be applicable to the full spectrum of conservation translocations. They are based on principle rather than example and are designed to provide guidance on the justification, design and implementation of any conservation translocation.
More than 1.5 billion smallholders throughout the world depend on forest landscapes to produce food, fuel, timber and non-wood forest products to meet their subsistence needs and generate cash income. Despite the large number of smallholders and the large collective scale of their production, policy makers have overlooked smallholders’ role as a powerful economic engine.
La biodiversidad y el carbono orgánico en los suelos determinan en gran medida el papel de la tierra en la producción de alimentos, el almacenamiento de agua, y la mitigación del cambio climático. Para restaurar o preservar la biodiversidad y el carbono orgánico de los suelos se necesita aumentar los insumos de materia orgánica o reducir las pérdidas de carbono, o ambas a la vez.
La biodiversité des sols et le carbone déterminent en grande partie le rôle de la terre dans la production de nourriture, le stockage de l’eau et l’atténuation des changements climatiques. Ce rapport souligne comment le carbone organique des sols et la biodiversité des sols constituent la base des services écosystémiques terrestres.
Soil biodiversity and soil organic carbon are vital to the way ecosystems function and they largely determine the role of land in producing food, storing water, and mitigating climate change. This report highlights how soil organic carbon and soil biodiversity provide the foundation for terrestrial ecosystem services. Restoring or preserving soil biodiversity and soil organic carbon requires increased inputs of organic matter or a reduction of carbon losses, or both.
