Summary
Carbon sequestration through recommended forest management practices is an ecosystem service that helps mitigate climate change while generating carbon credits for forestland owners to sell in carbon markets. In this fact sheet, we explained how South Carolina forestland owners can participate in the California’s carbon market in order to preserve forests ecosystems in the state. We believe that this fact sheet would spark interests in discussions about forest offset projects potential in the southern states if published.
