Tropical wetland countries refine forest reference emission levels (FREL)

AUTHOR Evans, M.
At the latest United Nations Climate Change conference (COP27), held in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, many countries stepped up to increase their targets for greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction – otherwise known as their nationally-determined contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement on climate change. Indonesia, for instance, committed before the conference to a 31.89 percent reduction from baseline levels on its own (up from a previous commitment of 29 percent), and by 43.20 percent if it receives international support (up from a previous 41%).
