From Paris: Government Leaders Emphasize Protecting Nature

Yet we already have one great "technology" to address a large part of the problem - natural systems. Protecting, restoring and improving how we manage the world's forests, grasslands and wetlands can offset at least 20% of human-caused greenhouse gas emissions. This message was loud and clear at the Global Landscapes Forum during the U.N. climate change convention here in Paris. At the forum, thousands of government, business and civil society leaders gathered to find land-use solutions for the climate, people and the environment.
