The political economy of negative emissions technologies: consequences for international policy design (2018, unknown): “Afforestation (Grassi et al., 2017) and biochar (Woolf, Amonette, Street-Perrott, Lehmann, & Joseph, 2010), while leading to ‘ negative emissions ’ relative to a counterfactual, are sometimes seen as part of ‘ classical ’ mitigation and thus not covered in this article.”
A global map of mangrove forest soil carbon at 30 m spatial resolution (2018, background): “With the growing recognition that effective action on climate change will require a combination of emissions reductions and removals (Rockström et al 2017), protecting, enhancing and restoring natural carbon sinks have become political priorities (Boucher et al 2016, Grassi et al 2017).”
