When properly implemented, the production of bioenergy using wood pellets can play a role in addressing threats related to biodiversity and climate change. Reduction in forest loss and degradation is fostered by the integration of sustainable pellet production with other forest markets and strategies to implement nature-based solutions. Local stakeholders should be engaged to devise management practices appropriate for the location and context. Market incentives for sustainable biomass production help conserve forests.
