UNFCCC Cop 21 Paris Experiences on implementation of ecosystem-based approaches to climate change mitigation in peatlands Rio Conventions Pavilion December 1, 2015

Emissions from peatlands per country indicating which countries contribute most to global peatland emissions and where it is most urgent to undertake peatland rewetting action Rio Conventions Pavilion December 1, 2015

Emissions from peatlands per unit national land area (in tCO2e/km2) indicating where peatland emissions are most relevant for land use policies Rio Conventions Pavilion December 1, 2015

Peatland emissions as % of national fossil fuel and cement emissions indicating the importance of peatlands for national climate policies Rio Conventions Pavilion December 1, 2015

Experiences in SE Asia: Indonesia

Peatland rewetting, Central Kalimantan Hydrological restoration stops emissions and restores biodiversity

Local stakeholders must benefit Community-based Building dams using traditional techniques Employment & benefit sharing Paludiculture: sustainable income 2003 2012 Local stakeholders must benefit

Communities replant degraded peatlands Paludiculture, Central Kalimantan Reforestation

Experiences in Europe: Russia

The PeatRus project Response to large peat fires around Moscow in 2010 High level bilateral decision for international collaboration and exchange of expertise. German (IKI) finance: € 5 million Russian finance: € 35 million Implemented under the German International Climate Initiative (IKI) Facilitated through German Development Bank (KfW) Managed by Wetlands International

Identifying and mapping peatlands (inventory) Moscow Province Peatbogs and peatlands 250 000 ha or around 6% of the total province area; Total number of sites > 1700 Sites from 2.5 to 26,000 ha Restored 70,000 ha

Costs of rewetting Preparation & planning (design) Implementation Maintenance & operation Other (monitoring, taxes, etc.) Ecological approach significantly cheaper than hydro-technical facilities Larger sites less costly Ecological rewetting: cheaper maintenance Ecological rewetting ~ € 60 / ha Hydro-technical rewetting ~ € 1.200 / ha Rio Conventions Pavilion December 1, 2015

Roadmap to accelerate action for peatland restoration Wetlands International is starting a global programme for peatland restoration for climate change mitigation with the CBD, UNCCD and Ramsar Convention Hotspot analysis of degraded peatlands An online Global Peatland Hotspot Atlas International collaboration for targeted finance Capacity building and upscaling Large scale implementation via major programmes Rio Conventions Pavilion December 1, 2015
