New research indicates that India, Brazil, and Indonesia can reach mid-century climate goals by focusing on land management rather than dietary changes. The study highlights the role of halting deforestation in Brazil, protecting peatlands in Indonesia, and increasing soil carbon storage in India. By prioritizing the agriculture, forestry, and other land use sector, these nations can create significant carbon sinks. This approach aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while protecting food security and rural livelihoods in emerging economies.
