| dc.description.abstract | The prime minister of Sri Lanka made a policy statement on 5th November 2013 to indicate the future priorities of the new government. It had over 70 inspirational statements indicating a wide array of issues and subjects of concern to the government. In what might have been an oversight, the statement did not mention any action or direction with regard to climate change and the environment.
Thus, this Insight suggests that REDD+ should be a positive feature of Sri Lanka’s environmental policy; not just because it will help in meeting greenhouse gas (emission) reduction targets, but also because it will provide information and enable policies that secure the economic and ecological benefits of the country’s forests. | en_US |
