Carbon Sequestration

Updated May 9, 2007



Forest carbon sequestration is a new and rapidly evolving concept for forestry in California. This website can be used as a gateway for those interested in certifying carbon on forestland in California.

This website is also a demonstration of how to implement a certification of sequestered carbon with the California Climate Action Registry using the Forest Project Protocol. A Forest Project Protocol certifies a portion of a forest as opposed to the whole property. The demonstration site is located in LaTour Demonstration State Forest, northeast of Redding, California.

This project was made possible through a grant administered by WESTCARB and funded by the California Energy Commission.
