Abstract
The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) has been internationally implemented as a part of the Kyoto Mechanism to reduce Greenhouse Gases (GHG) for mitigating climate change. Although forest is considered as the only carbon sink and its significance has increased, the number of registered Afforestation/Reforestation (A/R) CDM projects has recently decreased. Also, the Paris agreement, the new regime of climate change, sets to outline Sustainable Development Mechanisms (SDMs) to substitute CDM including A/R CDM, but the rulebook does not finalize yet. Therefore, it is essential to review the status of registered A/R CDM projects to build a best practice model on forestry sectors before entering the new framework. This study would research A/R CDM projects implemented in India, which is the most active country to be interested in Afforestation and Reforestation. The used materials were 19 Project Design Documents for A/R CDM projects in India, including statistical and spatial data. Those documents were used to identify the status and analyze the environmental and socio-economic factors in the study area. As Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is important during project decision making process, the relationship between current CDM projects and SDGs, the other important framework to be achieved, used for the analysis. The major project areas were in Uttar Pradesh carried out by Divisional Forest Officer (DFO) from Indian administration. The climates of A/R CDM projects areas including Uttar Pradesh were mostly warm, dry, and well-drained, and the native plants were highly preferred. Unlike the other project areas, Uttar Pradesh was economically worse, which means that the area was highly related to SDG 2 and 15. This research could contribute to achieving SDGs by matching each goal with the environmental and socio-economic factors. Throughout the matching, host countries could select the suitable factors to achieve SDGs by implementing the A/R CDM projects. This study would suggest the framework which should be considered before implementing A/R CDM or other projects related to forestry sectors. As a result, it could be connected to respond to climate change, forest management, and GHG reduction ultimately.
