WNPS lecture: Protecting the environment with REDD-plus
View(s):The monthly Wildlife and Nature Protection Society lecture will be delivered by Conservator- General of Forests and National Programme Director, Sri Lanka REDD Programme, Anura Satharasinghe on Thursday, October 23 at 6.15 p.m. at the Department of Metereology auditorium, Bauddhaloka Mawatha, Colombo 7. REDD- plus is one of the buzzwords in the decades-old climate change negotiations. REDD-plus (Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation) became part of the ever-expanding climate change lexicon in 2005. It’s easy enough to remember, but the issues surrounding REDD-plus are far from one-dimensional.
