news - Tropical forests can strengthen green bond market

The issue of sustainable land bonds can provide low-cost financing for the transition of rural economies toward low-carbon and sustainable land management practices, according to the Climate Bonds Initiative. In a report, Sustainable Land Bonds, the organisation says that tapping mainstream financial markets can provide incentives that allow tropical forest countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and develop environmental infrastructure, as well as encouraging sustainable rural agricultural production.
