Climate Change Mitigation Finance for Smallholder Agriculture – A Guide Book to Harvesting Soil Carbon Sequestration Benefits
This manual focuses on climate change mitigation financing for smallholders. It is divided into sections on the role of climate change finance in the context of agricultural development and poverty reduction, and a guide to developing soil carbon sequestration crediting projects. Highlighting the interest in climate-smart agriculture, the guidebook describes opportunities that provide food security and mitigation benefits, but stresses that concerns remain over the ability to monitor and report on soil carbon emissions.

Kick the Habit: A UN Guide to Climate Neutrality
This manual includes a guide for governments, small and large organizations, businesses and individuals who want to embark on the path to climate neutrality. This concept – climate neutrality – is the subject of this book. True, there is a huge gulf between where we are now and the climate-neutral future that we need if we are to achieve sustainable development. But the message of this book is that the gulf is not uncrossable and that there is also a lot to gain. It will take patience, persistence and determination, but it can be done.

Community-based Natural Resource Management – How Knowledge is Managed, Disseminated and Used
This manual roots for natural resources as the foundation from which rural poor people can overcome poverty. It argues that planners and implementers of natural resource development projects do not always profit from the lessons learned – either information is lost or it is not easily accessible or changing circumstances may limit its value. This is why this manual encourages learning from the past. It does so by selecting case studies and citing how natural resources can be used to for sustainable management.

Low Carbon Green Growth Roadmap for Asia and the Pacific: Turning Resource Constraints and the Climate Crisis into Economic Growth and Opportunities
This policy document includes a roadmaps that explores the opportunities that a low carbon green growth path offers to the Asia-Pacific region. It articulates five tracks on which to drive the economic system change necessary to pursue low carbon green growth as a new economic development path. In particular, it highlights that the “visible structure” of the economy, comprising such physical infrastructure as transport, buildings and energy systems, together with the “invisible structure”, which encompasses market prices, governance, regulations and lifestyles, have to be re-oriented towards resource efficiency. The roadmap provides policymakers in the region with a comprehensive list of policy options and practical implementing strategies as well as examples of successful practices, woven through more than 100 fact sheets and case studies.
