Up until now the debate in terms of the scientific and economic implications of avoided deforestation has not been brought together. This book gathers together important research findings in the area along with their policy implications, whilst linking avoided deforestation to political economy as well as to the latest developments in environmental and natural resource economics.

1. Introduction: reducing CO2 emissions through avoided deforestation?
Part 1: The Cost Effectiveness of Avoiding Deforestation 2. The costs of
avoided deforestation as a climate change mitigation option 3. Economics of
avoiding deforestation 4. Assessing the economic potential for reducing
deforestation in developing countries Part 2: Policy and institutional
barriers to avoided deforestation 5. International policy and institutional
barriers to reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation in
developing countries 6. Reducing carbon emissions by slowing deforestation:
REDD initiatives in Brazil 7. Choosing avoided deforestation baselines in
the context of government failure: the case of Indonesia's plantations
policy 8. Will credits from avoided deforestation in developing countries
jeopardize the balance of the carbon market? Part 3: Insights for Effective
and Efficient Avoided Deforestation Policy 9. Leakage from avoided
deforestation compensation policy: concepts, empirical evidence, and
corrective policy options 10. A scalable approach for setting avoided
deforestation baselines 11. Human choices and policies' impacts on
ecosystem services: improving evaluations of payment and park effects on
conservation and carbon 12. Increasing the efficiency of forest
conservation: the case of payments for environmental services in Costa Rica
13. The Role of Risk in Targeting Payments for Environmental Services 14.
Prospects for Mitigating Climate Change Through avoided deforestation:
conclusions and outlook.
