Whether overtly flagged or not, land use is at the heart of nearly all discussions on climate change and adaptation. Extractive economic systems, market failures and mismanagement of our collective commons have driven us to intensify pressure on degraded land, incentivize harmful agricultural practices and ultimately, expand the destruction of our biodiversity. To catalyze a shift in land use that meaningfully moves the bar, we need to support solutions formalizing ownership for underserved communities and empower land stewards.
