Sustainable Forest Management

Government-imposed targets are an effective tool for promoting the sustainable management of forests.

Government-imposed targets for deforestation

Government-imposed targets for deforestation

  • E.g. Brazil has set ambitious targets regarding the state of the Amazon Rainforest, including the complete abolishment of illegal deforestation and the reforestation of twelve million hectares by 2030.
Government-imposed targets for emission reductions

Government-imposed targets for emission reductions

  • Emission reduction targets may apply to emissions from cars or from factories.
