Avoided deforestation can be characterized as the use of financial
incentives to reduce rates of deforestation and forest degradation,
with much of the focus on forests in tropical countries. While
avoided deforestation, as a policy issue, is not new, the current
debate in academic and policy circles on including it in future
climate change mitigation strategies such as the Clean Development
Mechanism is gathering pace - and this debate is only likely to
intensify as negotiations continue over what should be included in
the successor agreement to the Kyoto Protocol, which is set to
expire in 2012. Up until now, however, the debate in terms of the
scientific and economic implications of avoided deforestation has
not been brought together. This book aims to bring together
important research findings in the area along with their policy
implications, whilst linking avoided deforestation to political
economy as well as to the latest developments in environmental and
natural resource economics.
