(ktoe) and avoided greenhouse gas emissions of 566 kilo-tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (KtCO2e). Tunisia''s "Low Carbon 2050" strategy, established in 2021, …
Global Warming and Carbon Sequestration in Africa''s ...
The importance of the Congo Basin hinges on the fundamental role of forest ecosystem services. Forests play a major role in Earth''s carbon cycle through assimilation, storage, and emission of CO 2 (O''Connor 2008) addition, sustainably produced wood fuels offer an environmentally benign alternative to fossil fuels (Marland and …

Protect existing forests to reduce emissions from deforestation. The carbon reservoir in the Congo Basin forest biomass and soils is very large, highlighting the importance of conserving natural forest, and eliminating agricultural practices which contribute to the deterioration of these reservoirs.

Ghana Signs Landmark Deal with World Bank to Cut Carbon …
PRESS RELEASE NO: 2020/006/CCG. kfosu@worldbank . fbanaji@worldbankgroup . Ghana – with one of the highest deforestation rates in Africa – has become the third country to sign a landmark agreement with the World Bank that rewards community efforts to reduce carbon emissions from deforestation and forest …
Congo Basin Rainforest Is a Net Carbon Source During the Dry …
Since agriculture-driven forest-clearing fires in the Congo basin are responsible for 84% of forest disturbance area (Tyukavina et al., 2018), management/control of forest clearing is needed to reduce carbon emissions from the basin and protect the Congo rainforest as an important carbon sink.
World Bank and Republic of Congo Sign Agreement to Reduce …
The US$41.8 million agreement will help diversify economic growth while reducing pressures on forests. BRAZZAVILLE, May 3 2021 -The Republic of Congo has signed a landmark agreement with the World Bank''s Forest Carbon Partnership Facility (FCPF) that will unlock up to US$41.8 million for reducing emissions from deforestation and forest …
The race to zero emissions, and why the world depends on it
2010-2019 is the warmest decade on record. On the current path of carbon dioxide emissions, the global temperature is expected to increase by 3 to 5 degrees Celsius by the end of century. To avoid the worst of warming (maximum 1.5°C rise), the world will need to decrease fossil fuel production by roughly 6 per cent per year between 2020 and 2030.
The asymmetric effect of biomass energy use on environmental
In their empirical studies, Pradhan and Mbohwa found that bioenergy could reduce carbon emissions by 30% in South Africa. Additionally, Fontaras et al. in their investigations in Greece found that vegetable oil generated fuels has the potential to reduce CO 2 emissions by 30–60%. Similarly, plants and crops participate in the carbon cycle ...
Ghana Signs Landmark Deal with World Bank to Cut Carbon …
WASHINGTON, July 9, 2019 — Ghana – with one of the highest deforestation rates in Africa – has become the third country to sign a landmark agreement with the World Bank that rewards community efforts to reduce carbon emissions from deforestation and forest degradation.. Ghana''s five-year Emission Reductions Payment Agreement (ERPA) with …
Selective logging emissions and potential emission reductions from ...
To estimate carbon emissions from selective logging in Central Africa, we employed the reduced-impact logging for carbon emissions reductions (RIL-C) protocol to quantify baseline carbon emissions from legal timber harvests by source (i.e., hauling, skidding, and felling).
Assessment of Mangrove Carbon Stocks in Cameroon, Gabon, the …
Comparison with Adjacent Central African Rainforests of the Congo Basin. Ecosystem carbon storage reported in the mangroves of Central Africa is among the largest for any tropical forest (IPCC 2007). We made comparisons of mangrove carbon stocks with some of the reported carbon stocks of the terrestrial Congo basin rainforest (Fig. 6). For ...
Selective logging emissions and potential emission reductions from ...
Section snippets Reduced-impact logging for carbon emission reductions (RIL-C) methodology. The RIL-C protocol was developed to measure emissions from selective logging in Indonesia by its main source (either felling, skidding, or hauling), and to estimate the possible emissions reductions from adoption of improved logging practices …
IMF Country Report No. 21/226 REPUBLIC OF CONGO
5. Reduced global oil demand is transforming global oil markets. Oil will remain an important energy source for a few decades. However, transition to a low -carbon economy is expected to permanently reduce global oil demand from around 2040. Figure 3. Republic of Congo: Global Net CO2 Emissions from the Energy Sector and Industrial Processes
Selective logging emissions and potential emission reductions from ...
Reduced-impact logging for carbon emission reductions (RIL-C) methodology. The RIL-C protocol was developed to measure emissions from selective logging in Indonesia by its main source ... (43%) are the largest sources of emissions in most of the Congo Basin concessions studied. We suggest that efforts to reduce …
Critical ecosystems: Congo Basin peatlands
The Congo Basin is home to the world''s largest tropical peatlands, along with Brazil and Indonesia. The peat swamp forest of the Congo Basin stores around 29 billion tons of carbon – approximately equivalent to three years'' worth of global greenhouse gas emissions – while the Basin as a whole absorbs nearly 1.5 billion tons of carbon ...
Selective logging emissions and potential emission reductions from ...
Nearly half (51%) of logging emissions could be avoided without reducing timber yields if all best examples of RIL-C logging practices observed were applied in the same FME. At the country level, if all FMEs were to utilize these practices, emissions reductions would be 34% in RoC, 45% in DRC, and 62% in Gabon.
World Bank and Republic of Congo Sign Agreement to Reduce …
The Republic of Congo has signed a landmark agreement with the World Bank''s Forest Carbon Partnership Facility (FCPF) that will unlock up to US$41.8 million for reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation and increasing carbon …
Tackling emissions from logging
For example, in the Congo Basin, by constructing narrower roads that are still suitable for traffic of heavy vehicles, forestry operators can reduce emission from hauling operations by as much as 58 per cent. In Madre de Dios, Peru, located in Southwestern Amazonia, reducing wood waste generates the biggest carbon bang for …
