Mitigation planning has not sufficiently considered poverty reduction policies, the basis for narrowing the adaptation gap . Many synergies between climate change mitigation and poverty reduction have been identified, although sometimes with limited evidence. The mitigation measures that have been most evaluated include clean development mechanisms , programmes aimed at reduction of emissions from deforestation and forest degradation , voluntary carbon offsets and biofuel production. However, while these mitigation programmes stimulate economic growth, they may contribute to processes that trade-off against equitable development and threaten to further impoverish forest communities, such as large-scale land acquisitions  and fortress conservation ; and see also Chapter 6 of this report).
