🌿 Key Highlights.2) 9.65 Gt (+/- 0.88) of additional carbon is attributed to the protected area status. These higher stocks result from avoided emissions from deforestation in protected areas compared to unprotected forests, as well as enhanced growth and avoided degradation.

🌿 Key Highlights:.1) Protected areas contain a total aboveground carbon stock of 61.43 Gt (+/- 0.31), approximately 26% of all mapped terrestrial woody carbon. This highlights the crucial role of protected areas in safeguarding carbon reserves and mitigating climate change.
