| Abstract: |
| Land use, land use change, and forestry (LULUCF) especially tropical deforestation, contributes approximately 17-20% of the total greenhouse gas emissions. A practical solution is to compensate land users who change their landuse fromhigh carbon stock to lower ones, e.g., not to clear forests for agriculture. This, in principle, is the reason behind the so-called Reducing Emmisions fro Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD) mechanisms. Another solution is to obtain sustainable land use through cross-sectoral planning and managed land use changes. This explains the importance of land administration in reducing greenhouse gas emission. |
