Losing forest carbon stocks could put climate goals out of reach

“Delaying action leads to disproportionately higher costs,” explains Michael Windisch, the study’s lead author and PIK guest scientist. “Right now, our climate strategies bet on forests not only remaining intact, but even expanding,” Windisch says. “However, with escalating #wildfires like in #California, and continued #deforestation in the #Amazon, that’s a gamble. #ClimateChange itself puts forests’ immense carbon stores at risk.”

According to the study, postponing action to reduce #emissions and to protect and monitor #forests could jeopardise #climate targets. “We must act immediately to safeguard the carbon stored in forests,” Windisch emphasises. “Otherwise, compensating for potential forest carbon losses through steeper emissions cuts in key emission sectors like #energy, #industry and #transport will become increasingly expensive and possibly unattainable.”

My idea about how #trade agreements should be done by the #EU: All products imported into the EU should adhere to current and *future* EU regulations. EU regulations should enforce #workerrights, #animalrights, #climate change protection, #environmental responsibility, #consumer rights and more.
All who adhere to good practices should be welcome to sell without tariffs.
Now let the EU work on improving regulations that support public values for the planet and all its inhabitants.
