IPCC WGIII Report: The Land Sector and Climate Mitigation
This briefing summarizes the IPCC Working Group III (WG3) findings on the Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Uses (AFOLU) sector, detailing its potential for climate mitigation and the role of land-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR). It highlights that while the land sector can provide up to 30% of the global mitigation needed for 1.5°C and 2°C pathways, it cannot compensate for delayed emissions reductions in other sectors. The document also notes a significant investment gap, with current funding at USD 0.7 billion per year against a requirement of over USD 400 billion per year.
