Paris Climate Agreement: Opportunities to Improve the Competitiveness of Domestic Business through Forest Conservation
https://doi.org/10.38050/013001052019410
Abstract
The implementation of the Paris Climate Agreement, ratified by 184 countries, requires the formation of economic mechanisms related to the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions. The Russian Federation is also planning to ratify the Paris Agreement, which will require the creation of adequate economic and legal instruments. The article discusses the economic mechanism that allows domestic producers to offset greenhouse gas emissions from forest takeovers and transfer the absorbed tons from the Russian forest sector to other sectors of the economy, which will increase the competitiveness of domestic producers on the world market and leave funds domestically. This creates an opportunity to increase expenses for the rational use and preservation of the national ecosystem.
