The entire LULUCF sink in Finland is considered 'managed' in emission reporting, but in practice it is a mix of anthropogenic and natural effects.
This is a reason we suggest not to use the sink to offset fossil emissions. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Finland has learnt the hard way.

Aika monelle pienyrittäjälle selviää nyt, että julkinen kulutus ja tuloja tasaavat tulonsiirrot olivatkin keskeinen osa yritystoiminnan kannattavuutta. Lähes kaikki pienyrittäjyys onkin säätelemättömässä kapitalismissa todennäköisesti kannattamatonta.

In the current world, where climate scenarios are worsening every year, the biological carbon storage is unreliable.

This is a good practical example of the fact that biological carbon stocks are only temporary, and therefore their inclusion in the national net zero targets cannot be scientifically justified.

Probably the best example of a collapse in the uptake of carbon dioxide on land (LULUCF) is in Finland.

Finland has a huge carbon debt burden. Finland has overshoot it´s carbon budget from the global fair share by more than 2X.
It's crucial that we acknowledge this and take responsibility. We owe it to the global south, those who have stayed within their fair share.

Great illustration. Starting the responsibility clock in 1960, the global north had burned through its fair p/c share of the 1.5C budget by about 1990. Now we're nearly 3x.
What about China? Don't underestimate how many people live in China. Still under fair share.

We find that ambitious mitigation to reach net zero by 2050 in all countries could limit warming to 1.5°C - which is crucial - but the global North would overshoot its collective fair share of the 1.5°C carbon budget by 3 times, appropriating half of the global South’s fair share in the process. 4/

To keep below 1.5°C, with a 50-50 chance, would require global CO2 emissions to be zero in ~2038 (orange line).
The other scenarios (blue) overshoot to ~1.6°C before going back <1.5°C in 2100 (& they start with a global carbon price in 2020).
