Abstract

Taking into account the Greenhouse Gas Emissions for Colombia in year 2010, different options for reduction of GHG emissions were considered. Twenty-four options were evaluated from economical and technical points of view, with a total reduction potential of 31. 7 Mton/ year of CO2 equivalent. About 75% of this potential could be developed in the forestry sector and 25% in energy projects. If the proposed measures can to be implemented, the country's emissions will be 143.5 Mton/year ofCO2 by 2010: this means that Colombia will have lowered its emissions not only to the 1990 leve! but down to 14% below this level.
