Natural climate solutions can mitigate climate change in the near-term, during a climate-critical window. Yet, persistent misunderstandings about what constitutes a natural climate solution generate unnecessary confusion and controversy, thereby delaying critical mitigation action. Based on a review of scientific literature and best practices, we distill five foundational principles of natural climate solutions (nature-based, sustainable, climate-additional, measurable, and equitable) and fifteen operational principles for practical implementation. By adhering to these principles, practitioners can activate effective and durable natural climate solutions, enabling the rapid and wide-scale adoption necessary to meaningfully contribute to climate change mitigation.
自然气候解决方案能够在气候关键期的短期内缓解气候变化。然而，对于什么构成自然气候解决方案存在持续的误解，这产生了不必要的困惑和争议，从而延误了关键的缓解行动。基于对科学文献和最佳实践的回顾，我们提炼出自然气候解决方案的五项基本原则（基于自然、可持续、气候额外效益、可衡量和公平）以及十五项实际实施的操作原则。通过遵循这些原则，从业者可以激活有效且持久的自然气候解决方案，实现有意义地助力缓解气候变化所需的快速和广泛采用。
