Carbon Storage of Bamboo Forest and Its Ecological Function - Fu, Weijun

. .

Résumé :
Given the potential for bamboo to act as an important carbon sink, there is a need for greater integration of bamboo into national and international policies and mechanisms aimed at managing the effects of global climate change. The most prominent international policy framework in this regard is the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), with its Clean Develop- ment Mechanism (CDM) that aims to reduce emissions via projects in developing countries.
