The global warming has drawn the world’s attention to the serious over-emission of greenhouse gases, and such awareness has finally pushed the Kyoto Protocol come into effect on February 16, 2005. To implement the practical emission reduction of greenhouse gases, particularly on CO2, the world has made commitment to CO2 reduction and has worked hard to achieve the target. The terrestrial biosphere, not only plays an important role in the carbon cycle on earth but also has great potential in absorbing large amount of CO2. Therefore, international efforts emphasize a lot on forests management regarding carbon stock and carbon sequestration through various co-effective approaches from “Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF)” aspects. With reasonably scientific and quantifying carbon accounting and carbon management systems, the carbon uptake enhancement can be implemented through appropriate afforestation, reforestation and urban forestry practices. This project therefore focuses on the following perspectives: introducing IPCC requirements and methodology of national carbon accounting; case study on approaches to enhance carbon stock on LULUCF from international experiences; how Taiwan can establish national carbon accounting and monitoring systems based on IPCC standards; evaluating the benefits of carbon sequestration enhancement in Aquapu areas by EPA in recent years; and also drafted the optimum management through various land use practices, national carbon strategy and implementation mechanism particularly appropriate for Taiwan. In addition, the project also held the “Terrestrial Biosphere Carbon Sequestration and Management Seminar” inviting related government departments and scholars for consensus on potential information exchange platform and policy implementation.
