D06: How to Implement a Grassland Carbon Offset Project
In this workshop, we will walk land trust managers and landowners through the development of an Avoided Conversion of Grassland project. This will be an interactive session where land trust managers and landowners will identify whether their region of focus is eligible for avoided conversion of grassland projects and the requirements for grassland project development. The session will review considerations for developing a grassland carbon offset project: cost, contracts and long-term commitments. It will be welcome for interaction regarding specific projects and address concerns landowners may have. Attendees will walk away with a basic understanding of stakeholders involved in development and how to begin evaluating whether a grassland project is a fit for their land trust.
Session Location: Oregon Convention Center
