Natural climate solutions and fire mitigation: early findings on the path to net zero

What risk do forest fires pose to natural climate solutions and their viability on voluntary carbon markets? This working paper uses novel methods to assess the permanence of natural climate solutions across six case studies in Brazil, Indonesia and Peru. Around the globe, governments and multilateral institutions have implemented policies and measures supporting climate change mitigation, which have brought a diversity of actors and approaches together across a wide range of geographic scales, blending governance structures, societies, and cultures.
