Land-based negative emission solutions are expected to play a pivotal role in future climate actions and policy scenarios. To ... date most climate actions have focussed on phasing out fossil fuels and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in e.g. industry, electricity, transport. While zero emission trajectories in these sectors will remain the top priority for decades to come, it is expected that by mid- and end of this century still some residual GHG emissions will remain. To be able to fulfil the Paris Agreement and meet the climate goals research, policy and markets are increasingly looking at land-based negative emission solutions. The LANDMARC project will contribute to this by making better estimates about the realistic potential of land-based negative emission solutions in agriculture, forestry, and other land use sectors. The research activities will deploy: o A mix of earth observation technologies, to be able to (better) monitor and estimate the effectiveness of land-based negative emission solutions o A suite of climate, land-use, and economic simulation models, to better estimate the true (scaling) potential of land-based negative emission solutions, both from an earth systems and human systems perspective o A social sciences-based approach for effective impact assessment and engagement with local and regional stakeholders - in 14 countries and 5 continents - that are already work on implementing negative emission solutions. read more
