Data Tables & Figures

This Guide draws heavily on data from our research partners, published academic papers, and public reports for estimates of greenhouse gas emissions and mitigation potentials.

Estimates for tropical commodity-driven deforestation and associated emissions were calculated by a team of researchers at Stockholm Environment Institute through its Trase Initiative, Chalmers University of Technology, and the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre. 

November 2020 update: The updated and publicly available version of the dataset used to derive estimates of tropical deforestation associated with the production of particular agricultural and forestry commodities can be found here

Estimates for total emissions from deforestation and land conversion (including all drivers) were drawn from publicatons of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and peer-reviewed scientific literature.
 
Estimates for the climate change mitigation potential of various climate solutions were taken from publications of Project Drawdown, based on an extensive meta-analysis and modeling effort.

High-resolution versions of the figures and data tables used to make them can be downloaded below. Figures may be shared and used in presentations and reports, with attribution. Please contact Meryl Richards mrichards@ceres.org with any questions.
