Carbon Credits in Private Forrests

What is happening? 39% of woodland in the U.S. is privately owned. A new program allows 30 acres or more to be enrolled in carbon credit programs. Please meet the nonprofit American Forest Foundation’s Family Forest Carbon Program.

Why does this matter? Instead of making money by turning woodland into logging, private landowners can turn their woodland into carbon credits.
