It would not appear possible to increase, over the long term and durably, the sink potential of ecosystems used for agricultural and forestry purposes to an extent that considerably exceeds the sink potential of natural potential vegetation. Any approach towards offsetting emission reduction commitments against terrestrial sources and sinks must therefore carefully balance the opportunities and risks. This study shows that many uncertainties and imponderables attach to the de facto reduction of net emissions that is achievable through terrestrial sinks.

No individual category of measures offers by itself a significant regulative effect upon the global carbon balance. The present study shows that terrestrial ecosystems can only be used to a limited extent as carbon sinks. It would not appear possible to increase, over the long term and durably, the sink potential of ecosystems used for agricultural and forestry purposes to an extent that considerably exceeds the sink potential of natural potential vegetation. Any approach towards offsetting emission reduction commitments against terrestrial sources and sinks must therefore carefully balance the opportunities and risks.
