Forest Carbon Sequestration Subsidy and Carbon Tax as Part of China’s Forestry Policies
Forestry is an effective strategy for climate change mitigation. However, forestry activities not only sequester carbon but also release CO2. It is therefore important to formulate carbon subsidy and carbon taxation policies on the basis of the price of carbon. In this study, a forestry-based Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model was built by using input-output data of China in 2014 to con...
متن کاملTropical Forestry Practices for Carbon Sequestration
Carbon sequestration through forestry has the potential to play a significant role in ameliorating global environmental problems such as atmospheric accumulation of GHG's and climate change. This chapter provides an overview of various aspects related to carbon sequestration through forestry. It describes the main concepts of carbon fixation; the trends in global environmental policy are discus...

Recent focus has been given to US forests RS I sink for incrcascs in atmospheric carbon dioxide. Current estimates of US Eorest carbon sequestration average approximately 20 Tg (i.e. IO” g) year. However, predictions of forest carbon sequestration ofien do not include the influcncc of hurricanes on forest carbon storage. Intense hurricanes occur two out of three years across the eastern US.

متن کاملHurricane impacts on US forest carbon sequestration.
Recent focus has been given to US forests as a sink for increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide. Current estimates of US forest carbon sequestration average approximately 20 Tg (i.e. 10(12) g) year. However, predictions of forest carbon sequestration often do not include the influence of hurricanes on forest carbon storage. Intense hurricanes occur two out of three years across the eastern US. ...

★ This paper represents work completed at the Australian National University. I am now working at the Productivity Commission. The views expressed in this paper do not necessarily reflect those of the Productivity Commission. Carbon dioxide emissions resulting from direct human activities, primarily fossil fuel use and land clearing, have altered the global carbon cycle. Carbon is absorbed (seq...
