Description
Climate change poses one of the greatest challenges we face, with significant implications for both societies and the earth. As part of the international dialogue on the environment and climate, the role of forests in influencing earth systems needs to be assessed. This book explores how forests will interact with the physical and natural world, as well as human society, as the climate changes. It examines the science behind forest management, the policy interface, and international frameworks and conventions. The book provides valuable insights for those interested in sustainable forest management, climate change, and associated environmental sciences. By considering the potential of forests to mitigate climate change and maximize economic and non-market benefits, this book offers a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationships between forests, climate, and human societies.
