Forest Carbon Credits in McHenry County
Lisa Haderlein, Executive Director of The Land Conservancy of McHenry County, and Jessica Beverly, Forest Carbon Program Director for TLC will join us to talk about urban forest carbon credits in McHenry County. They’ll touch on how a project is created, such as the two owned by TLC and one owned by the McHenry Conservation Foundation and how a nonprofit carbon credit registry is helping to create carbon offsets available for purchase in our own backyard. They will also discuss the voluntary carbon market in general and how important small projects like these are to reach climate goals.
