Logged to Protected Forest (LtPF)
Definition:
Logged to Protected Forest (LtPF) is an IFM methodology category in the VCS. This category includes practices that reduce net GHG emissions by converting logged forests to protected forests. By eliminating harvesting for timber, biomass carbon stocks are protected and can increase as the forest re-grows and/or continues to grow. Harvesting of trees to advance conservation purposes (e.g., the removal of diseased trees) may continue in the project scenario. LtPF activities include protecting currently logged or degraded forests from further logging and protecting unlogged forests that would otherwise be logged.
