Deforestation and forest degradation have been identified as a key
source of global GHG emissions and reducing emissions from
deforestation and degradation (REDD) has been identified as an
important and low cost method for climate change mitigation. The
aim of the present study was to assess REDD as a greenhouse gas
reduction option and to assess the potential of REDD in India. SWOT
Analysis technique was used for the assessment of REDD while an
in-depth literature review, together with quantitative trend
analysis for forest degradation using Mann Kendall Test formed the
basis for assessment of the Indian situation vis-a-vis REDD.
Success of REDD Plus in India lies primarily in the 'plus'
component i.e. projects based on conservation and enhancement of
carbon stocks and reducing emissions from degradation in specific
regions.
