Synergies and trade-offs between net zero policies and biodiversity conservation in Brazil

This project develops and deploys economic landuse modelling to understand the synergies and trade-offs between net zero policies and biodiversity conservation, including the role of nature-based solutions, in climate mitigation efforts, with a particular focus on Brazil. The project also seeks to understand the impacts on ecosystems of different trade policies and supply chain agreements.

How can we manage uncertainties in habitat greenhouse gas emissions?

Estimating emissions and developing mitigation pathways for environmental greenhouse gases presents additional challenges beyond those associated with tracking fossil carbon dioxide (CO2). Firstly, environmental emissions are uncertain and variable in time and space, reflecting the complicated interactions between ecological communities and their physical environment that give rise to emissions. Secondly, environmental greenhouse gas emissions are […]

The Flourishing Landscapes Programme

The Flourishing Landscapes Programme (FLP) addresses the triple challenge of livelihoods, climate change, and biodiversity loss at tropical forest frontiers. FLP focuses on landscapes with agricultural land-use dominated, to varying extents by, by coffee or cocoa production.
