[excerpt]
This Congressional Budget Office (CBO) study, prepared at the request of the Chairman of
the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, examines challenges that affect whether actions
to preserve forests could make a cost-effective contribution to reducing global emissions
of greenhouse gases. It also discusses the pros and cons of approaches that the United States
and other developed countries could take to promote forest preservation. In keeping with
CBO’s mandate to provide objective, impartial analysis, the study contains no
recommendations.
