In order to explore the possibility of carbon credits for greening projects, which play an important role in climate change mitigation, this paper examines a formula for estimating the amount of carbon fixation for greening activities in urban areas through tree planting. The usefulness of the formu...
As a response to global crises of climate change and biodiversity loss, the UN has called for restoring a billion hectares of land. In recognition, both governments and the private sector have pledged to restore landscapes through planting millions of hectares of forests. Private sector investment i...
The evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of Payments for ecosystem services (PES) in fostering positive environmental outcomes has been central to the scientific debate on their implementation. PES cost-effectiveness can be affected by a myriad of environmental, institutional and socio-economic fact...
As the climate continues to warm and the world becomes more urbanized, our reliance on trees and the benefits they provide is rapidly increasing. Many cities worldwide are planting trees to offset rising temperatures, trap pollutants, and enhance environmental and human health and well-being. To max...
Destitué par la modernisation agricole, l’arbre a perdu sa place ancestrale en agriculture pour être ségrégué en forêt. Or, en quelques décennies, la trajectoire de ce problème socio-écologique est passée des politiques de remembrements aux soutiens aux plantations. Avec l’agroforesterie, les agricu...
Laage-Thomsen, Jakob/Blok, Anders (2020) Local Environment 25(2), pp. 162-178. ABSTRACT In this article, we deploy the loosely bounded phenomenon of “urban green communities” – in the shape of urban gardening, beekeeping, food collectives, biodiversity enhancement, tree planting and kindred citizen-...
In Africa, cocoa yields are low, partly due to soil fertility constraints and poor management. While peoples’knowledge, aspirations,and abilities are key factors explaining their behaviour, little is known about the rationales that underpin soil fertility managementpractices (SFMPs) of cocoa farmers...
L’Inde, comme la plupart des régions du monde, souffre de l’épuisement des forêts. Les communautés marginalisées qui dépendent de ces forêts pour leur subsistance et leur bien-être sont les plus touchées. Les réglementations postcoloniales du Service des Forêts ne font qu’exacerber encore davantage...
The main objective of this study is to settle a rigorous field of decision analysis for rubber tree clones selection. Nowadays, there does not exist any process based upon a rigorous method to select the best clone to be plant in order to get the highest return on investment. The only known selectio...
