Research On China’s Carbon Sink Forestry Development Based On The Regional Forest Carbon Sink Capacity

September22,2009, at the closing ceremony of the UN climate change summit President Hu Jintao promised:China should greatly increase the forest carbon sinks; the forest area in2020would increased by40million hectares, and forest stock volume in2005would increased by1.3billion cubic meters at least than that in2005. Due to the differences of natural conditions, the endowment of forest resources was also different. In the process of addressing climate change, and enhance forest carbon sinks, we must take into account regional factors. So this paper attempts to use sustainable forestry development and econometrics theory and research methods, and carried more in-depth study and discussion on the pressure of regional carbon sink and the development of China’s forest carbon sinks.First, it calculated the regional forest carbon sequestration and carbon emissions, and had an analysis on regional the pressure of forest carbon sinks after the two were compared. Carbon emissions of most provinces in2009were greater than the amount of carbon sinks, and the difference between the two was the largest in Shandong, Guangdong and Hebei. Given the great pressure of the regional forest carbon sinks, we need to develop carbon sequestration forestry. Then, it built an evaluation index system of regional carbon sink forestry development capability, which concluded that the strongest province of the regional carbon sink forestry development capability in2009were Shanghai, Beijing and Inner Mongolia, and the weakest were Gansu, Ningxia, Qinghai, Anhui and Shandong. Next, the development capacity of regional carbon sink forestry, and the conditions of forest carbon sinks pressure were classified, respectively. Finally, it gave on a regional development proposals, concluded overall recommendations, and provided the basis for development strategy of regional carbon sink forestry.
