Webinar: Let’s Talk About Planted Forests will focus on Carbon Sequestration in Plantations
CO2 emission compensation, Carbon credit, ecosystem restoration, nature based solutions: plant a tree is in most cases considered as the best option to store carbon in terrestrial ecosystems. During this webinar, we will try to address some of the issue related to this affirmation: how much will we store in forest plantation? What uncertainty is related to Climate change? How the money from carbon market can arrive in forest plantations?
Our speakers:
- Loretta Garrett, Forest Soil Scientist at Scion: « Lifting the profile of soil carbon »
- Serajis Salekin, Forest Scientist at Scion: « Carbon sequestration potential of plantation forest in New Zealand: No single species is universally best »
- Ander Arias-González, Head of the Forestry Research Department at Neiker « Forest soils and CC mitigation. Some thoughts from the Basque Country »
- Simon Martel, Research Fellow at I4CE, «The CRCF, a European certification framework to increase carbon financing for forest ? »
