Spatial action maps of potential atmospheric carbon reductions thought forest restoration or avoided deforestation in the tropics. At a carbon price of US$20 tCOe−1 from 2020 to 2050, maps show potential removals from reforestation (A) and reduced emissions from avoided deforestation (B). Combining the maps allows a ranking of 77 countries based on their potential to reduce carbon emissions through both actions (C). Axes are log‐scale, blue data are for Latin America/Caribbean; orange data are for Africa; and green data are for Asia. The three‐letter country codes are from the UN trade statistics (https://unstats.un.org/unsd/tradekb/knowledgebase/country‐code). Additional details under the Tropical Carbon case in Table 2.
