Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Public awareness about the problems related to rainforest depletion increased considerably in the 1990s, but the level of emphasis to the problems faced by the world's tropical rainforests has become conspicuously low in recent years. Yet, there is a heightened sense of urgency in respect of the need to handle the challenges posed by climate change and the role that rainforest depletion may play in this process. This paper reviews the relationships between rainforest depletion and climate change, and outlines some areas where action is needed. |
