Incubation of cultured human cells with interleukin 1 leads to increased expression the metallothionein-IIA gene. Recently, metallothionein has been shown be an efficient free radical scavenger, and induction by may part a protective response minimize damage hydroxyl radicals.
Community forestry or social (henceforth referred collectively as SF) programs have become new modes of forest management empowering local managers and hence, allowing integration diverse practices support livelihoods. Implementation these initiatives, however, face multiple challenges. State-prescribed community programs, for example, will remain isolated efforts if changes in the overall economic governance frameworks, including devolution rights to users is lacking. Financial...
Abstract The Anthropocene presents a set of interlinked sustainability challenges for humanity. United Nations 2030 Agenda has identified 17 specific Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as way to confront these challenges. However, local initiatives have long been addressing issues connected goals in myriad diverse and innovative ways. We present new approach assess how contribute achieving the SDGs. analyse many, frequently, different SDGs targets are addressed African initiatives....
Halting forest loss and achieving sustainable development in an equitable manner require state, non-state actors, entire societies the Global North South to tackle deeply established patterns of inequality power relations embedded frontiers. Forest climate governance can provide avenue for transformational change needed-yet, does it? We analyse politics four cases mitigation, adaptation, arenas. use a political economy lens explore transformations taking place when policy meets specific...
It is necessary to assess whether the management of protected areas achieving objectives set for them. In particular, changes and trends in wildlife populations should be documented. We compared 1990 abundance mammals two Costa Rican areas, Corcovado National Park (CNP) Golfo Dulce Forest Reserve (GDFR), with similar environmental characteristics but different hunting restrictions levels protection. also monitored CNP over a 4-year period. devised an inexpensive method monitoring tropical...
REDD+ was designed globally as a results-based instrument to incentivize emissions reduction from deforestation and forest degradation. Over 50 countries have developed strategies for REDD+, implemented pilot activities and/or set up monitoring reporting structures, safeguard systems benefit sharing mechanisms (BSMs), offering lessons on how particular ideas guide policy design. The implementation of at national, sub-national local levels required payments filter through multiple governance...
Southeast Asia has long promoted social forestry (SF) in conservation areas, fallow forests, tree plantations, areas timber concessions and locally managed agro-forest systems, with the engagement of diverse actors objectives. SF evolved from early aims empowerment devolution rights advocated by global reform movements, is now reframed market ideal as a win–win–win endeavor for sustainable forest management, climate change mitigation robust entrepreneurial livelihoods. Asian states have...
Interventions to strengthen forest conservation in tropical biomes face multiple challenges. Insecure land tenure and unequal benefit sharing within user groups are two of the most important. Using original household-level survey data from 130 villages six countries, we assess how current wealth inequality relates security flows use. We find that with higher report lower more income externally sourced income. Furthermore, wealthier individuals capture a disproportionately larger share total...
Non-technical summary Despite efforts to address the global forest crisis, deforestation and degradation continue, so we need urgently revisit possible solutions. A failure halt crisis contributes climate change biodiversity loss will continue result in inequalities access to, benefits from, resources. In this paper, unpack a series of powerful myths about forests their management. By exposing better understanding these what makes them persistent, have basis make social political changes...
The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are described as integrated and indivisible, where sustainability challenges must be addressed across sectors scales to achieve global-level sustainability. However, SDG monitoring mostly focuses on tracking progress at national-levels, for each goal individually. This approach ignores local cross-border impacts of national policies assumes that is the sum national, sector-specific gains. In this study, we investigate effects...
Gender equality in natural resource management is a matter of sustainability and democracy for Sweden's government, however the country's forest remains highly gender-segregated sector. We examine how gender inequality problematized within Swedish rural policy documents using What's problem represented to be? (WPR) approach. build on previous efforts investigate sector by expanding critical analysis development policy. conduct interviews with experts, owners, practitioners shed light where...
