This document summarizes the Sourcebook . The purpose of the sourcebook is to further elaborate the concept of CSA and demonstrate its potential, as well as limitations. It aims to help decision makers at a number of levels (including political administrators and natural resource managers) to understand the different options that are available for planning, policies and investments and the practices that are suitable for making different agricultural sectors, landscapes and food systems more climate-smart.

From November 19 to 21, 2014, some of the world’s most noted specialists on forest landscape restoration gathered in Rio de Janeiro to assess Natural Regeneration as a cost-effective strategy to achieve large-scale restoration throughout the world. Natural regeneration consists, in its most basic form, of letting remaining portions of the original ecosystem re-colonize a degraded area.

Basándose en datos más completos y fiables como nunca antes, y abarcando 234 países y territorios, la Evaluación de los recursos forestales mundiales 2015 da evidencia de signos esperanzadores del logro de una gestión forestal mejorada y de una disminución de la deforestación en todas las regiones del mundo. Sin embargo, estas tendencias deben aún ser reforzadas, especialmente en los países que han quedado a la zaga.

Las acciones para reducir las emisiones y eliminar GEI en el sector de la agricultura, la silvicultura y otros usos de la tierra (AFOLU) ofrecen valiosas oportunidades sobre las que fundamentar y aumentar las sinergias con actividades relacionadas con la intensificación sostenible, la mejora de la eficiencia, la adaptación al cambio climático, la seguridad alimentaria y el desarrollo rural (Módulo 1).
