James N. Levitt, Chandni Navalkha
《自下而上:土地保护组织应对气候变化的解决方案》是林肯土地政策研究院(Lincoln Institute of Land Policy)最新的政策专题报告,记录了土地保护组织是如何通过制定并实施具有创新性和基于自然的解决方案,以适应和减轻气候变化对人类和生物多样性的影响。报告分享了来自澳大利亚、中国、德国、美国的创新案例,以及拉丁美洲、北非、中东地区的合作项目。这些案例和经验展示了土地保护组织在保护土地、保护水源供给、应对强降水和海平面上升、维持生态系统平衡、可再生能源合理选址和碳汇等方面迅速且全面的行动。
报告由土地保护领域的国际专家和教育家James Levitt和土地与水资源可持续管理专家Chandni Navalkha共同撰写。报告中的成功案例为私营和公共部门提供了以下指南,以提高民间组织采用基于自然的气候解决方案的能力:
支持在范围和规模上具有创造性和雄心的民间部门倡议。
投资战略明确且影响力可衡量的举措。
以广泛的合作为目标。
分享先进的科学、技术以及金融工程技术。
支持可持久、可适应且可复制的项目。
From the Ground Up:How Land Trusts and Conservancies Are Providing Solutions to Climate Change
James N. Levitt and Chandni Navalkha
The latest report from the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, From the Ground Up: How Land Trusts and Conservancies Are Providing Solutions to Climate Change, documents how land conservation organizations are developing and implementing creative, nature-based strategies to adapt to and mitigate the magnitude and impacts of a changing climate for people and for biodiversity. It profiles initiatives from Australia, China, Germany, and the United States - as well as partnerships in Latin America, North Africa, and the Middle East - that are exemplary cases of how land conservation organizations are acting with speed and at all scales to conserve land, protect water supplies, manage stormwater and sea-level rise, maintain biodiversity, site renewable energy, and store carbon.
This report—written by James Levitt, a global expert and educator in land conservation, and Chandni Navalkha, an international leader in sustainable management of land and water resources—offers numerous case examples of successful initiatives along with the following guidance for stakeholders in the private and public sectors looking to boost the potential of civic organizations to implement natural climate solutions:
Empower civic-sector initiatives that are creative and ambitious in scope and scale.
Invest in initiatives with clear strategies and measurable impact.
Aim for broad collaborations.
Share advanced science, technologies, and financial engineering techniques.
Support initiatives that are built to last, able to adapt, and ready to replicate.
