Description.
Revitalizing forests presents a chance to safeguard the integrity of watershed processes and functions, alleviate the decline in biodiversity, address climate change impacts, and comply with regulations such as forest certification that oversee the global trade of forest products. Native forest restoration efforts aim to improve the provision of ecosystem services.
This methodology provides a means to quantify net GHG emission removals (NERs) from project activities that plant and restore native forest habitats. In doing so, it aims to facilitate the implementation and scaling up of native forest restoration efforts globally.
