Webcast: Northwest Forests & Carbon: Science and Solutions

Although new studies reveal a previously unexpected, tremendous capacity of  west coast forests to absorb CO2,  this new scientific understanding has not yet been transformed into public policy. Panelists will present a synopsis of this research and analyses and discuss proposed policy changes that would elevate carbon-oriented forest management as a climate solution.

Originally scheduled as a panel at the Public Interest Environmental Law Conference in early March (canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic), this webinar features Dominick DellaSalla, Chief Scientist with Geos Institute; Ernie Niemi with Natural Resource Economics; and Chandra LeGue of Oregon Wild. Moderated by Fergus McLean, Conservation Chair of the Many Rivers Group Sierra Club.

Brought to you by Oregon Wild, Many Rivers Group Sierra Club, Geos Institute, and Natural Resource Economics.
