 June 21st 7:00pm: Understanding carbon in your forest, and the impact of harvesting on carbon in your woods.
Bill Keeton (Professor of Forest Ecology and Forestry) – Firewood is a form of biomass which can also be described as carbon. Trees take energy from the sun, and through the process of photosynthesis transform this energy to wood.  This presentation will explore the impacts of harvesting wood on the larger carbon cycle, and how forests can help play a role in reducing the impacts of our changing climate.
