TL;DR: In this article, an index of global warming potential for methane, carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide, chlorofluorocarbons and CFCs relative to that of carbon dioxide was proposed.

TL;DR: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report on Land Use, Land Use Change, and Forestry (SR-LULUCF) has been prepared in response to a request from the UNFCCC Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare the benefits of different kinds of land-use change and forestry (LUCF) activities, such as carbon sequestration in forest plantations, avoiding deforestation by creating protected areas, and policy changes to slow rates of land use changes such as clearing.

TL;DR: In this paper, the combined effect of the feedback mechanisms reviewed here will likely amplify climate change relative to current projections that have not yet adequately incorporated these mechanisms, and the authors conclude that the combined effects of these feedback mechanisms, including CO2 fertilization, carbon storage in vegetation and soils, vegetation albedo, and peatland methane emissions, likely amplify global climate change.

TL;DR: The National Action Plan was developed to stabilize the concentrations of greenhouses gases in the atmosphere at a level that prevents dangerous interference with the climate system as mentioned in this paper, which is the ultimate objective of the Climate Treaty itself.
