Over the next five years, New England Forestry Foundation will anchor a regional incentive program to build New England’s climate-smart, forest-based economy while protecting ecosystem health and biodiversity.
New England Forestry Foundation will hold a Climate-Smart Forestry Partnership webinar on Wednesday, April 26th from 1 to 2:30 p.m.
This free webinar is for anyone interested in learning about climate smart forestry as a tool for powerful climate action.
The transformational scale of this pilot project is made possible by a $30 million investment awarded by the USDA’s Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities program.
This webinar will detail NEFF’s plans for:
- Implementing forest management practices that store more carbon in the forest and in wood products substituted for fossil fuel-based materials,
- Quantifying the resulting carbon gains, and
- Building markets for climate-smart forest products
We’ll also feature a panel discussion with several of our partners, including Richard Campbell of the American Forest Foundation’s Family Forest Carbon Program, Ted Wright of the Trust to Conserve Northeast Forestlands, Jeff Spiritos of Spiritos Properties, and Dan Hudnut of Wagner Forest Management, Ltd.
