Fighting Fossil Fuels First Making EU climate policy work for people and forests
28 March 2015

It explores why forests cannot offset fossil fuel emissions; and recommends reorienting EU finance currently earmarked for forests more effectively on factors that drive deforestation - improved governance and enhanced tenure rights.
