Rezension zu „Community Forest Monitoring for the Carbon Markets “
'Incentivizing and compensating local forest users for reduced emissions require regular monitoring of forest carbon stocks. This book demonstrates convincingly - based on extensive field research - that this can be done by local communities themselves in a reliable and cost-efficient way.' Arild Angelsen, Professor, Norwegian University of Life Sciences & Senior Associate, CIFOR
