Are you a forest owner or environmental enthusiast interested in learning how to improve the health of forested land while also promoting forest carbon storage and sequestration? Then join us to learn about the importance of forest ecology, forest carbon and the benefits available to forest owners who prioritize forest carbon in their management practices. This webinar will focus on forest carbon programs for landowners and factors to consider when enrolling in forest carbon markets. Forest owners will learn about the financial benefits available to those who successfully enroll in a forest carbon market and fulfill their management goals. Learn how you can manage your woods in a way that is beneficial to both you and the planet. This webinar is the last of a 3-part webinar series, which have all been recorded and will be made available.
