“Tropical forests are a key asset for humanity’s future for reasons that extend well beyond their function as a carbon store. Rather than seeking to lock tropical forest management into an all-embracing global climate convention, and thus getting snarled up in the complexities of reducing industrial carbon emissions, forests should be managed in ways which recognise the integrated value of these ecosystems. Issues of deforestation should be de-coupled from the UNFCCC.”

— Mike Hulme, Professor of Climate Change, University of East Anglia, 2010
