The Mexican Carbon Program (PMC) was raised as the scientific counterpart of the government in the JNACP (Joint North American Carbon Program, today CarboNA) to implement strategies on the subject at the level of North America (Canada, USA and Mexico), according to the Memorandum of Understanding signed between the three countries. The PMC currently has more than 350 active members of more than 30 national institutions. The objective of the PMC is to coordinate the scientific activity associated with the carbon cycle, aimed at generating elements for public policies and development of mitigation and adaptation actions, as well as the reduction of vulnerabilities, for Mexican society. In accordance with its Scientific Plan prepared in 2008, with support from the Instituto Nacional de Ecologia, it was proposed to make a Report on the State of the Carbon Cycle (RECC) to establish the baseline of the stores and flows of greenhouse gases in Mexico, within the Blue Agenda (ocean and coast) and Green (land). As of 2016, with the support of CONACYT, the conclusion of the First RECC for its public presentation in 2019 was raised, with the participation of more than 120 coordinators and collaborators of the academic and scientific institutions of Mexico. The synthesis State of the Carbon Cycle in Mexico: Blue and Green Agenda, is the First Report that represents a significant contribution to the dissemination of knowledge of the carbon cycle in Mexico and its effect on climate change. This work, carried out by numerous specialists, reflects the state of current knowledge of the carbon cycle and its interactions in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.
