SUMMARY:Wildlife & Carbon Webinar (NAFSE Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Register \nWednesday\, June 16\, 2022\n12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. ET \nWebinar (join information will be sent to you after registration) \nWe will hear from Caitlin Littlefield\, Lead Scientist at Conservation Science Partners\, and John Scanlon\, recently retired MassWildlife Habitat Program Manager\, as they examine the trade-offs between maximizing forest carbon and habitat restoration goals. These trade-offs and knowledge of the related climate impacts can help land managers and landowners determine what management goals best suit the land they are on and what sustainable forest practices are needed. This webinar will then delve into the implications of these trade-offs specifically for pitch pine-scrub oak barrens and the wildlife therein.
