Sleeping Bear LLC Managing Member Vandy Johnson attended the “Minnesota Forest Carbon Series: Carbon Markets” event hosted by the University of Minnesota Sustainable Forests Education Cooperative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The three-day event was designed to review the why, who, and how of forest-based carbon markets. We heard from representatives of forest carbon credit programs serving large and small-acreage owners and public and private landowners who are actively involved in carbon markets on their land. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We also spent a day in the woods at the University of Minnesota Cloquet Forestry Center, visiting stands to visually compare and contrast forest carbon inventory data and projections in a variety of stands. The goal of the program was to facilitate a strong understanding of key terms and concepts and how different carbon credit programs work, and which, if any, might be right for your land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Dr. Eli Sagor, SFEC Program Manager, and Dr. Matt Russell, UMN Extension and Department of Forest Resources, for leading the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
