6. Land-based emissions in the last decade
• On average emissions from
deforestation and other land-use
change were 1.3 GtC during
2007-2016
• Together, land use change, fossil
fuel and industry emissions,
reached 11.2 GtC in 2016
• Forests and othe LUC accounting
for about 12%

7. (New way of) governing forests
• Watershed approaches
o International
o National
o Sub national
• Links to climate objectives
o REDD+ (market-based??)
o NAMA (unilateral)
o NDC (conditional and unconditional)
• Taking SDG (6,13,15) targets into account
win-win trade-offs

8. 1. Achieve universal and equitable access to safe and
affordable drinking water for all
1. Strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to climate
related hazards and natural disasters in all countries
2. Integrate climate change measures into national
policies, strategies, and planning
3. Mobilize USD100 billion annually by 2020 through GCF
1. Sustainable forest management to combat desertification,
halt and reverse land degradation, and biodiversity loss
2. Sustainable use of terrestrial and inland freshwater
ecosystems and their services, in particular forests,
wetlands, mountains and drylands
2. Implement integrated water resources
management at all levels, including through
transboundary cooperation as appropriate
