Study shows hot leaves can’t catch carbon from the air. It’s bad news for rainforests – and Earth
Rising temperatures are weakening the ability of tropical forests to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and mitigate climate change, which has significant implications for the global water cycle.
Sarawak's so-called green revolution is little more than a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Companies and the state government are operating in ways that not only devastate the environment but also marginalise remote Indigenous communities.
Enshrining free, prior and informed consent in Malaysian law can improve the credibility of carbon projects. In the meantime, carbon conversations must include Indigenous voices and wisdom.
