FAO Forestry Paper 177, Forestry for a low-carbon future: Integrating forests and wood products in climate change strategies, presented the range of mitigation options available in the forest sector. It explored the mitigation potential, opportunities and challenges for five broad options: expanding forest and tree cover, reducing deforestation and preventing forest loss through REDD+, changing forest management practices, improving and using wood energy, and promoting the use of wood for greener building and furnishing. The present publication contains the background papers that informed that Forestry Paper, authored by the experts who contributed to the Forestry Paper. They have been only moderately edited (e.g. for style and clarity). The analytical studies are shown in Part 1. Case studies provided by contributors, but not included extensively in the Forestry Paper, are in Part 2.
