The Double-Edged Nature of Land: A Practical Analysis of the IPCC's Special Report on Climate Change and Land

The Double-Edged Nature of Land:  A Practical Analysis of the IPCC's Special Report on Climate Change and Land

“[…] the IPCC’s SRCCL shines light on interlinked global challenges like climate adaptation and mitigation, desertification, land degradation and food security, whilst suggesting land-related actions/NBS that can mutually benefit all these areas.
