A guide to monitoring and evaluation of the non-legally binding instrument on all types of forests (NLBI)
Every year, forest loss and degradation is costing the global economy between USD 2 and 4.5 trillion in lost revenues, according to a global study published by The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB) in 2010. Furthermore,they produce 17% of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions. Forests have a huge potential as carbon stores and provide livelihoods and subsistence for a considerable part of the rural population in developing countries. Their significance on a global scale reinforces t he importance to manage them in a sustainable way.
