Land-based mitigation technologies and practices

This research paper analyzes land-based mitigation technologies and practices (LMTs), providing a classification of these tools and an analysis of the barriers preventing their large-scale adoption and scaling.

• Afforestation, reforestation, and forest management are identified as LMTs that possess high potential and wide application across all continents.
• Biochar and bioenergy with carbon capture and storage have greater short-term potential in higher-income countries because of available funding, technology, and low-cost biomass value chains.
• The primary obstacles to the large-scale deployment of LMTs are insufficient financing and limited knowledge regarding implementation, despite the fact that most LMTs can be cost-effective in various world regions.
• Large-scale LMT deployment may worsen existing inequalities if the rights of Indigenous Peoples, marginalised groups, and gender considerations are ignored.
