In reducing climate change, natural-based climate solutions (NCS) play a vital role. There is however a lack of understanding in natural based climate solutions around social, political and biophysical contexts. These three contexts slow down the implementation of nature-based climate solutions. The research by Maina and Asamoah estimates carbon sink potential to identify socioeconomic and ecological factors that may stimulate NCS implementation in developing economies. There were eight NCS that were identified, which were the following: peatland restoration, improved rice cultivation, avoided peatland impacts, optimal grazing intensity, the grazing of legumes, natural forest management,  avoided coastal impacts and reforestation. Further, the concept of NCS is not understood fully in food insecurity hotspots which have the assistance when it comes to development. There will be poor implementation of NCS projects at a country level when it comes down to food insecurity and poor governance structures.
