International REDD+ evolution
In the 1997 –Kyoto protocol, policies related to deforestation
& degradation was excluded.
Exclusion resulted in the formation of Coalition for
Rainforest Nations-CRN ( Papua New Guinea, Costa Rica
and other forest nations).
In COP 11 Montreal Canada a fundamental millstone was
achieved since CRN are supported by other eight countries
This countries proposed a mechanism for Reduction of
Emissions from Deforestation in developing countries (RED)

Cont…
In COP-13 at the 2007 Bali UNFCCC meeting, an
agreement was reached on “ the urgent need to take further
action to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest
degradation(REDD).
REDD+ has since expanded to include role of forest
conservation, sustainable forest management, and
enhancement of forest carbon stocks in forests (
Reforestation, afforestation, agroforestry , forest
rehabilitation etc)

• The basic steps of carbon accounting are:
• Calculate the area under forest cover
using satellite imagery
• Calculate the carbon density in each
forest type
• Calculate the rate of change
• Combine the data on area, density,
and rate to define your baseline
scenario
• Monitor how you perform compared
to your baseline over the years
Carbon Accounting

• Explains steps for preparing national
greenhouse gas emissions inventories for
AFOLU(Agriculture, Forestry, and other Land
Uses)
• Indicates methods for measuring changes in
carbon stock: • Forest cover
• Biomass
• Provides formulas for quantifying changes in
carbon stock for all land use classes
• Describes accepted methods for remote sensing• Satellite imagery (Landsat, SPOT, MODIS)
• Radar, Lidar
• Aerial photographs
Measurement: IPCC Methodologies

Tier 1• Predetermined formulas and values (e.g. for emissions factors and changes
in stock)
• Data estimates for national level activities (e.g. deforestation rates, forestry
statistics, vegetation cover, population changes)
Tier 2• Emission data or carbon stock data at the national or regional level
• National level emissions factors
• More precise spatial data by activity
Tier 3• Higher level of measurement, with forest inventory systems and modelling
• Permanent sample sites and periodic measurement
• High precision disaggregated activity data
Measurement: IPCC Methodologies

• Reference emissions level: the amount of
gross emissions from a geographical area
estimated within a reference time period
• Reference level: the amount of net/gross
emissions and removals from a
geographical area within a reference time
period
• Methods:
• Historic data
• Modelled Projections
• Historic data with adjustments
Reference Levels

• For national programs, additionality is
proven through measuring performance
against a REL or RL
• For projects, other additionality tests
include:
• Legal/regulatory test - is project legally
required?
• Financial test - does project maximize net
present value and rate of return without
potential carbon payments?
• Common practice test - is project typical
for management practices in region or
historic on property?
Additionality

Leakage: what is it?
• Human-caused changes in carbon
emissions in defined spatial area outside of
project boundaries but attributable to
project.
• Increase in emissions in one area due to a
reduction of emissions in another.
Exists in other
sectors, not just
forestry

• Activity leakage occurs when the activity
that caused the deforestation in a project area
is displaced to a different location outside the
boundaries of the project area.
• For example, farmers inside a
conservation project area might shift
operations and clear forests outside the
project area.
• Market Leakage: market effects at regional
to global scale due to reduced supply but
undiminished demand
• Examples: Increase log exports from
another country
Leakage
There are two forms of leakage that REDD+
activities are susceptible to: activity leakage and
market leakage:

Managing leakage
– Alternative livelihood development
• fruit and coffee gardens
• sustainable forestry
– Portfolio balancing
• Reforestation
– Improved governance and spatial
planning
– Buffer credits (i.e. 10 – 40%)
– National level accounting

Managing non-permanence
– Management factors: legal, financial,
tenure, staff competency, and
protection.
– Buffer reserves of actual carbon storage
held in escrow (about 20 – 30%)
– Insurance policies (i.e. for 100 years) to
pay for lost carbon
– Contracts with enforceable replacement
– Land trust (covenants)

Reporting and
Verification
• Reporting: Under national approaches to
REDD+, countries will need to report their
reference levels and performance to an body
defined by the UN
• Verification:
• Projects: Need to be verified by an
independent third party
• National programs: Verification
procedures still unclear
