Legacy Project
Wetlands Carbon Sequestration Protocol
Funder: State of California Coastal Conservancy
Project Timeline: July 28, 2014 - June 30, 2016
Country: United States
Program Area: Forestry and Natural Resource Management
Healthy wetlands have the potential to store large amounts of carbon. Winrock’s American Carbon Registry (ACR) is developing a methodology that will encourage wetlands restoration in California by allowing those who undertake conservation projects to generate offsets that can be sold on the state’s carbon market.
