Natural Climate Solutions for Forestry & Agriculture Final Report and Fact Sheets Now Available
Natural climate solutions (NCS), such as planting trees, reducing tillage, managing manure, and conserving land that sequester carbon or reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions can affect near-term climate change mitigation goals in cost-effective ways while also enhancing ecosystem services. Natural Climate Solutions for Forestry and Agriculture in Maine: Finial Report is a comprehensive assessment evaluating the benefits and costs of implementing several NCS practices to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions from Maine’s forestry and agriculture sectors.
This report presents findings from a part of the larger Maine Natural Climate Solutions Initiative project that seeks to: (1) assess current practices to determine the degree to which foresters and farmers are using NCS; (2) determine the most cost-effective NCS for Maine; (3) understand key barriers to adopting NCS; and (4) generate information about which practices can be implemented on a broader scale.
