Overcoming global inequality is critical for land-based mitigation in line with the Paris Agreement

F. Humpenöder, A. Popp, et al.

This research conducted by Florian Humpenöder and colleagues explores how addressing global inequality is vital for achieving land-based mitigation in line with the Paris Agreement. Their findings reveal that inclusive socio-economic development and sustainable land-use practices are essential to reducing emissions and promoting Sustainable Development Goals.

Abstract
This paper investigates the critical role of overcoming global inequality in achieving land-based mitigation aligned with the Paris Agreement. The authors use model-based projections to demonstrate that if sustainable land-use practices remain concentrated in high-income countries, global emissions from agriculture, forestry, and other land uses (AFOLU) will remain substantial. They find that inclusive socio-economic development, alongside global GHG emission pricing and sustainable land practices, is crucial for significant AFOLU emission reductions and achieving co-benefits for other Sustainable Development Goals.
