Abstract

Abstract Telecoupling interactions between social–ecological systems across large, often global distances drive negative impacts from the forest-based carbon market. However, these negative impacts have been underreported and, therefore, have likely been vastly underestimated. We identify how these unintended negative impacts may occur and provide recommendations for the forest-based carbon market to better account for externalities by prioritizing positive social impact, expanding comprehensive ecological outcomes, and improving the transparency of investments. We call for a carbon market that is designed to account for its global interconnectedness.
