El mecanismo de mitigación para el cambio climático, REDD+, representa una se las estrategias financieras que utiliza el pago por servicios ambientales para reducción de emisiones de carbono. Nacida dentro de la Convención Marco de las Naciones Unidas para el Cambio Climático, REDD+ ha sido diseñada para contribuir a la reducción de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero a la atmósfera a causa de la deforestación y degradación de los bosques, en los países en vías de desarrollo con importantes masas forestales. Para fortalecer el mecanismo se han creado salvaguardas, que, aplicadas al mecanismo, tendrán la función de precautelar los derechos de las poblaciones que habitan y hacen uso de los bosques, reconocidos por los ordenamientos internos de los países, así como a escala internacional. El diseño del mecanismo REDD+ contempla los métodos financieros para su funcionamiento. Fuentes y distribución de los recursos. El presente trabajo explica cómo las salvaguardas son empleadas en dichos esquemas de financiación con el fin de que los derechos estén garantizados en todos los componentes de REDD+. The mechanism for climate change mitigation, REDD + represents a financial strategie in which payment for environmental services to reduce carbon emissions is used. Born in the Framework Convention of the United Nations Climate Change, REDD + is designed to help reduce emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere caused by deforestation and forest degradation in developing countries with tropical forests. To strengthen the mechanism, they have been established safeguards, which, applied to the mechanism will guarantee the human rights of populations living and making use of forests, recognized by the internal systems of the countries and in an international scale.The design of REDD+ provides financial methods for operation. The financial sources and the distribution of the resources. This paper explains how the safeguards are employed in these financing schemes in order to protect these rights in all components of REDD +. Le mécanisme pour atténuer le changement climatique, REDD + représente une des stratégiesfinancières sont utilisées par le paiement des services environnementaux pour réduire les émissions decarbone. Né à la Convention-cadre de l'évolution du climat des Nations Unies, REDD + est conçu pouraider à réduire les émissions de GES dans l'atmosphère en raison de la déforestation et de la dégradationdes forêts dans les pays le développement des forêts importantes. Pour renforcer le mécanisme qu'ils ontété mis en place des garanties qui, appliquée au mécanisme fonctionnera à la sauvegarde des droits despopulations vivant et faire usage des forêts, reconnu par les systèmes internes des pays et à l'étranger. Laconception du mécanisme REDD + fournit des méthodes financières pour le fonctionnement. Sources etrépartition des ressources. Ce document explique comment les garanties sont employés dans cessystèmes de financement afin que les droits sont garantis dans toutes les composantes de la REDD +.

Forest disturbances from logging activities in Canada’s boreal forest influence forest structure and nutrient cycling. Understanding the effect of Canadian forest industry practices on carbon uptake, storage, and release is important for forest management. Forest management is an important component of climate change mitigation through the removal of carbon from the atmosphere. Changes to forest structure and soil nutrient storage can have significant impacts on primary productivity. Primary productivity is a measure of the rate of carbon sequestration in forest biomass. Reviewing the literature on forest ecosystem carbon dynamics will inform on how to maximize carbon sequestration in forest management. Identifying forest industry practices that result in the highest rates of carbon sequestration is an important step for sustainable forest management.

- Abstract
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is about managing an organizations impact on society and the environment through its operations, products or services and through its interaction with key stakeholders such as employees, customers, investors and suppliers. This book addresses how outsourcing can be used as a powerful tool for advancing critical social, economic, and environmental issues on a global basis. Additionally, it examines corporate responsibility policies and practices for outsourcing, including identifying and showcasing policies that our membership have adopted, creating a framework for companies to model new CR policies, and provides multiple resources for readers. Active for several years within the IAOP is the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Subcommittee of the IAOP Advocacy and Outreach Committee. As an outgrowth of the work of the CSR Subcommittee, the need for an Outsourcing Professionals Guide to CSR was identified.From both the 2009 and the more recent 2011 IAOP survey on corporate social responsibility in outsourcing, it was shown that an overwhelming (and consistent) 84-85% of organizations would follow IAOP guiding principles for socially responsible outsourcing. This stable percentage of organizations looking for guidance bodes well for the development of the IAOPs Outsourcing Professionals Guide to Corporate Social Responsibility.IAOP® is the global, standard-setting organization and advocate for the outsourcing profession. With a global community of more than 110,000 members and affiliates worldwide, IAOP is the leading professional association for organizations and individuals involved in transforming the world of business through outsourcing, offshoring and shared services. Our client-side members are, on average, responsible for $60 million per year of outsourcing spending with some overseeing outsourcing programs in the billions of dollars.85% of IAOP members credit IAOP for improved outsourcing outcomes at their organizations and 93% of IAOPs Certified Outsourcing Professionals® (COPs) say that the designation has had a positive impact on their careers.
