As the world’s population continues to grow, agricultural expansion is expected to increase to meet future food demand often at the expense of other land uses. However, there are limited studies examining the degree to which forest cover will change and the underlying assumptions driving these projections. Focusing on food and forest scenarios for the middle to the end of the current century, we review 63 main scenarios and 28 global modelling studies to address variations in land use projections and evaluate the potential outcomes on forest cover. Further, their potential impacts on greenhouse gases (GHG) emission/sequestration and global temperature are explored. A majority (59%) of scenarios expected a reduction in both forests and pasturelands to make way for agricultural expansion (particularly reference and no mitigation scenarios). In most scenarios, the extent of forest loss is proportional to that of crop gain, which is associated with higher GHG emission and global temperature, loss of carbon sequestration potential and increase in soil erosion. However, 32% of scenarios predicted that meeting food security objectives is possible without leading to further deforestation if there is a global reduction in the demand for energy intensive foods, and improvements in crop yields. Forest gain and lower rates of deforestation are needed to achieve ambitious climate targets over the next decade. Our analysis also highlights carbon taxes (prices), reforestation/afforestation and bioenergy as important variables that can contribute to maintaining or increasing global forest area in the future.

“到2050年应对90亿人口的粮食安全挑战:对森林有何影响?”的勘误 [全球环境。Change 62(2020)102056]

随着世界人口的持续增长,预计农业增长将增加,以满足未来的粮食需求,而这通常以牺牲其他土地用途为代价。但是,很少有研究检查森林覆盖率变化的程度以及驱动这些预测的基本假设。着眼于本世纪中叶到中期的粮食和森林情景,我们回顾了63种主要情景和28项全球建模研究,以解决土地利用预测的变化并评估森林覆盖的潜在结果。此外,还探讨了它们对温室气体(GHG)排放/隔离和全球温度的潜在影响。大多数(59%)的方案预计森林和牧场的减少将为农业扩张铺平道路(特别是参考方案和无缓解方案)。在大多数情况下,森林流失的程度与农作物的生长成正比,这与温室气体排放量和全球温度升高,碳固存潜力的丧失以及土壤侵蚀的增加有关。但是,有32%的情况预测,如果全球对能源密集型食品的需求减少,并且农作物产量提高,则可以实现粮食安全目标而不会导致进一步的森林砍伐。要在未来十年内实现雄心勃勃的气候目标,就需要森林增加和森林砍伐率降低。我们的分析还强调了碳税(价格),重新造林/植树造林和生物能源等重要变量,这些变量可有助于将来维持或增加全球森林面积。这与更高的温室气体排放和全球温度,固碳潜力的丧失以及土壤侵蚀的增加有关。但是,有32%的情况预测,如果全球对能源密集型食品的需求减少,并且农作物产量提高,则可以实现粮食安全目标而不会导致进一步的森林砍伐。要在未来十年内实现雄心勃勃的气候目标,就需要森林增加和森林砍伐率降低。我们的分析还强调了碳税(价格),重新造林/植树造林和生物能源等重要变量,这些变量可有助于将来维持或增加全球森林面积。这与更高的温室气体排放和全球温度,固碳潜力的丧失以及土壤侵蚀的增加有关。但是,有32%的情况预测,如果全球对能源密集型食品的需求减少,并且农作物产量提高,则可以实现粮食安全目标而不会导致进一步的森林砍伐。要在未来十年内实现雄心勃勃的气候目标,就需要森林增加和森林砍伐率降低。我们的分析还强调了碳税(价格),重新造林/植树造林和生物能源等重要变量,这些变量可有助于将来维持或增加全球森林面积。32%的情景预测,如果全球对能源密集型食品的需求减少,并且作物产量提高,则可以实现粮食安全目标而不会导致进一步的森林砍伐。要在未来十年内实现雄心勃勃的气候目标,就需要森林增加和森林砍伐率降低。我们的分析还强调了碳税(价格),重新造林/植树造林和生物能源等重要变量,这些变量可有助于将来维持或增加全球森林面积。32%的情景预测,如果全球对能源密集型食品的需求减少,并且作物产量提高,则可以实现粮食安全目标而不会导致进一步的森林砍伐。要在未来十年内实现雄心勃勃的气候目标,就需要森林增加和森林砍伐率降低。我们的分析还强调了碳税(价格),重新造林/植树造林和生物能源等重要变量,这些变量可有助于将来维持或增加全球森林面积。
