“…The adoption of renewable energy provides a promising avenue to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions while providing multiple socio-economic and environmental benefits [5]. The increased consumption of forest products [6] and the search for clean development mechanisms (REDD+) [7] or ecosystem services [8] also contribute to the forestry profession becoming uniquely important in its history.…”

Our study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of forestry programs in Brazil, including a comparative analysis with other countries while considering geographical factors. Over the past 25 years, the number of forestry programs in Brazil has increased from 43 to 75, leading to a rise in the annual number of graduates from 850 to 1500. Nevertheless, our findings reveal that only 60% of the available vacancies at universities are filled. On average, each institution enrolls 169 students (from 40 to 360 students per program). We also observed that, on average, each program employs 13 professors with a background in forest engineering (from 4 to 33). The results show that, among the professors from the ten oldest programs in the country, 78% had no prior professional experience outside academia, and 48% remained affiliated with the same university where they completed their undergraduate or graduate studies. There is a concerning and significant decline in the number of applicants for forestry programs, representing a strategic risk for the country. We identified a direct relationship between the number of programs, the population size, and the country’s total forest cover area when comparing Brazil with 12 other countries.

The Caribbean region is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Climate change pose a threat to the lives and livelihoods of the people living in the region. To mitigate these impacts, the Caribbean has joined with the international community, and pledged to implement their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement. The cost of implementing the NDCs measures in the Caribbean is high, and the region have not been receiving the required financial support. To address this limitation, a market-based mechanism such as an Emissions Trading System (ETS) could be implemented. This would create a financial incentive for emitters to reduce their GHG emissions, which in turn would help achieve the emissions reduction targets of the NDCs. An ETS is a policy tool that allows companies to trade emission allowances, which are permits that represent the right to emit a certain amount of GHGs. This study explores the mechanics of a potential regional ETS for the Caribbean.
