Climate change is a major constraint on the sustainability of the humid tropics, maintaining ecosystem services, food production, and social functioning. Humid tropics play an essential role in C storage and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction. Unfortunately, unplanned economic exploration, human occupation, and lack of knowledge of techniques to maintain ecosystem services negatively affect the humid tropics. In this study, we focused on the mechanisms of GHG emissions, C storage, and their mitigation strategies. This review indicated technologies that can be adopted by farmers in humid tropics to maintain or increase their capacity to store C stocks and reduce GHG emissions. The adoption of climate-smart agriculture technologies and the regulation of ecosystem services markets will accelerate the progress of preserving the humid tropics. Improved management practices, such as proper N fertilizer management and the introduction of N2-fixing legumes, can increase soil C sequestration, providing economic and environmental trade-offs associated with these management strategies. Public and private investments toward knowledge dissemination and technology adoption regarding GHG emissions reduction and soil C storage are needed to allow humid tropics to maintain their critical function of generating environmental and societal benefits.
