Circulation Mechanism Research On Forestry Carbon Sequestration Project Under CDM In China

Currently, climate change has become global challenge, and international society has doing positive actions to solve this kind of problem through tight collaboration. With the escalation of talking about dealing with climate change, forest, as the biggest carbon pool in ecosystem on earth, has taken an important position. Forestry carbon sequestration project, which is just the valid and eligible project under CDM in the first commitment (2008-2012), has turned into a significant part of state forestry development strategy, six key forestry programs and five forestry conversion developments in China. Therefore, forestry carbon sequestration has become a hot issue discussed both on theory and practice.This paper is based on systemic analysis of two basic aspects of forestry sequestration project: one is the international complexion of forestry carbon sequestration through expatiation of international regulation, discussion of financial mechanism, and analysis of international market of forestry carbon sequestration. The other is national complexion of forestry carbon sequestration through expatiating with the necessary of developing carbon sequestration project, discussing the possibility of implementing carbon sequestration project, and analyzing the practices of bringing carbon sequestration project in effect. Through research and analysis, a basic conclusion can be draw: carbon sequestration project is becoming an important factor influencing Chinese forestry development on resource. So it is necessary to establish a circulation mode of carbon sequestration project with characteristic of science and system, which has very crucial significance not only in theory but also in practice in term of pushing increment of forest resource and zoology building. According to the reflection and estimation on former research results, and combining the specific situation of China and situation of forestry, this research designs the circulation mechanism of forestry carbon sequestration under CDM involving three correlative parts: preparation qualification, implementation procedure and estimation mode of project.
