Relevant Challenges
Forest Restoration
Afforestation and reforestation planting technologies that can be applied over vast and remote areas, innovations to support growth of young saplings, scaling ways to harness trees potential to sequester carbon, smart applications in urban forest management, measurement of carbon stock changes.
Preservation and Monitoring of Natural Carbon Stocks
Technologies that facilitate halting of deforestation and forest degradation, e.g. early detection of threatened areas, empowering farmers and smallholders to protect and regenerate their environment, protection of old and natural forests, forest inventories to broaden access to carbon offsets, measurements of carbon stock.
