“Drawdown’s “System of Solutions” Helps to Achieve the SDGs” – 2020 – C.J.Frischmann, M.Mehra, R.Allard, K.Bayuk, J.P.Gouveia, M.R.Gorman
This entry describes the linkages between “Drawdown solutions” and the targets and goals set out by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is proposed that the implementation of these solutions can substantially help to achieve the SDGs by 2030, with even greater gains when implementing actions in parallel as a “system of solutions” enabled by broad-based, effective partnerships at local, regional, and international scales.

Following the COP 21, it has been widely recognized that agricultural soils may contribute toward mitigating or enhancing climate change depending on their behavior as a sink or a source of carbon (C) to the atmosphere.
“Droits fonciers et séquestration du carbone dans les sols” – Restitution des débats de la conférence organisée par l’initiative ‘4 pour 1000’ et le CTFD – 2017
Avec l’appui de l’AFD et de la Banque Mondiale, l’Initiative "4 pour 1000" et le Comité Technique Foncier & Développement (CTFD) de la Coopération Française ont organisé les 13 et 14 Décembre 2017 une conférence de haut niveau visant à clarifier le nexus entre les questions foncières et la séquestration du carbone dans les sols.
Retrouvez ici la restitution des débats et la note de synthèse finale.

“Opportunities for soil sustainability in Europe” – 2018 – EASAC
In this report, launched on 26 September 2018, the European Academies’ Science Advisory Council (EASAC), which represents the national science academies of the EU, Norway, and Switzerland, says its latest synthesis reveals that policy-makers need to grasp opportunities to safeguard Europe’s soils and ensure their sustainability. Back in 2014, insufficient support among Member States obliged the European Commission to withdraw proposals for a Soils Directive and Europe still lacks appropriate benchmarks for soils’ sustainability and needs to improve compatibility between different national monitoring systems. In recent comments, Elisabeth Köstinger from the Austrian Presidency of the EU discussed the importance of protecting soils; however, concerted action from Member States remains to be seen.
“Tamm Review: Influence of forest management activities on soil organic carbon stocks: A knowledge synthesis” – 2020 – Mathias Mayer & al
Almost half of the total organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems is stored in forest soils. By altering rates of input or release of C from soils, forest management activities can influence soil C stocks in forests.
