Watch this Discussion Forum on the first day of the Global Landscapes Forum 2014, in Lima, Peru, during COP20. The conservation, appropriation and equitable use of ecosystem goods and services – hydrologic and carbon resources in particular – are moving up higher on international and national agendas. Nevertheless, the supply of these goods and services often does not meet the demand for them. This discussion focuses on how to move forward to tackle adaptation and mitigation of climate change for poverty alleviation at the landscape level.
