A crescente concentração atmosférica de Gases de Efeito Estufa (GEE) é tida como a principal responsável pelo aquecimento global, o que pode levar a mudanças no clima. Esta nova realidade climática pode afetar negativamente a agricultura e outras atividades econômicas. Durante a COP-15, em Copenhague, Dinamarca, o governo brasileiro assumiu um compromisso voluntário de redução das emissões de GEE projetadas para 2020, entre 36,1% e 38,9%, estimando assim uma redução da ordem de 1 bilhão de Mg de CO2 eq. A Integração Lavoura-Pecuária-Floresta (iLPF), bem como outras tecnologias sustentáveis, podem ser adotadas para contribuir para mitigar emissões de GEE da agropecuária, e ao mesmo tempo promoverem a retenção de carbono na biomassa e no solo.

Contributions of the Crop-Livestock-Forest Integration Systems (iLPF) for a low Carbon Emission Agriculture
ABSTRACT
The increasingly greenhouse gases (GHG) concentration in the atmosphere is pointed as the main cause of the Global Warming and it can lead to climate change. This new climate scenario can adversely affect agriculture and other economic activities. In the last COP-15, in Copenhagen, Denmark, the Brazilian government committed to reducing GHG intensity by 36.1% and 38.9% by the year 2020. It is estimated that about 1 billion Mg CO2 equivalent will be sequestered from the atmosphere. The Crop-Livestock-Forest Integration, as well others sustainable technologies, can be adopted to contribute to mitigate GHG emissions from agriculture, while promoting the retention of carbon in biomass and soil.
Keywords: mitigation, greenhouse gases, retention of carbon.
