Abstract
⺠Forest fires affect REDD+ schemes in the humid tropics. ⺠They compromise carbon permanence. ⺠They undermine the potential of sustainable forest management and regeneration activities. ⺠They threaten additional REDD+ benefits, including biodiversity conservation and poverty alleviation. ⺠Forest fire avoidance should be integrated into all aspects of REDD+.
