TL;DR: Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use (AFOLU) is unique among the sectors considered in this volume, since the mitigation potential is derived from both an enhancement of removals of greenhouse gases (GHG), as well as reduction of emissions through management of land and livestock as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the energy ladder model of stove and fuel management in rural households and show that an alternate "multiple fuel" model based on the observed pattern of household accumulation of energy options, rather than the simple progression depicted in the traditional energy ladder scenario, more accurately depicts cooking fuel use patterns.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors bring together perspectives of various communities involved in the research and regulation of bioenergy deployment in the context of climate change mitigation: Land-use and energy experts, land use and integrated assessment modelers, human geographers, ecosystem researchers, climate scientists and two different strands of life-cycle assessment experts.

TL;DR: An assessment of the mitigation potential possible in the AFOLU sector under possible future scenarios in which demand-side measures codeliver to aid food security concludes that while supply-side mitigation measures, such as changes in land management, might either enhance or negatively impact food security, demand- side mitigation measures should benefit both food security and greenhouse gas mitigation.

TL;DR: In this article, the adoption and sustained use of improved cookstove are critical performance parameters of the cooking system that must be monitored just like the rest of the stove technical requirements to ensure the sustainability of their benefits.
