TL;DR: Nine issues that should be considered by project proponents to better evaluate and limit the environmental risks of such developments are highlighted.

TL;DR: There is a growing disconnect between the international conferences where grand solutions for tropical conservation are designed and the complex local realities in tropical landscapes where plans need to be implemented as discussed by the authors, and there is a tendency for global processes to prescribe simple generalized solutions that provide good sound bites that can be communicated with political actors and the media.

TL;DR: The Tropenbos International (TBI) now presents the results of a literature study evaluating the effects of forest certification on the biodiversity of temperate, boreal, and tropical forests as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify climate change adaptation options, their scale of application, and the necessary implementation steps for smallholder coffee farmers and show that implementation complexity strongly increases with the degree of climate change.

TL;DR: It is concluded that in slow-growing regenerating vegetation stands, the importance of asymmetric competition for light and growth can be much less than is often assumed.
