La gobernanza es un elemento clave para garantizar que los enfoques basados en la naturaleza para abordar la crisis climática apoyen las funciones ecológicas, sean sostenibles y produzcan beneficios colaterales, afirma Manuel Pulgar-Vidal durante una entrevista en "C2GTalk". En última instancia, subraya, cualquier intervención -basada en la naturaleza o en la tecnología- sólo puede considerarse si se basa en un firme compromiso de reducir las emisiones de dióxido de carbono.

Governance is a key element in ensuring that nature-based approaches to addressing the climate crisis support ecological functions, are sustainable, and produce co-benefits, says Manuel Pulgar-Vidal during a C2GTalk interview. Ultimately, he stressed, any intervention—whether nature- or technology-based—can only be considered if it is based on a strong commitment to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
Manuel Pulgar-Vidal is the global leader of the climate and energy practice of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) International. He was formerly the minister of state for environment in Peru and president of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) 20th Conference of the Parties (COP20).
