SCIENCE Special Issue on "Forests in Flux"

In the 13 June 2008 issue, SCIENCE - one of the world's most renowned journals published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science- examines the future of the world's forests against a backdrop of climate change and intensifying human activity. One of the featured articles (possibly inspired by the COMIFAC REDD workshop in Paris in march 2008) covers in detail the scientific upraise and cooperation of CBFP and its members.
