Title

Carbon offset potential through improved forest management at Vassar College Farm and Ecological Preserve

Subject

Carbon sequestration

Description

Intending to accurately demonstrate the role of its forest conversation practices, Vassar wants to do a 3rd- party verification of the carbon offset generated through vine removal and reforestation. With these two goals in mind, I was asked to choose the most suitable protocol for Vassar’s needs. Funds generated through these offsets can be utilized for the preservation of VFEP. I also analyzed the cost of 3rd-party verification and peer verification. A project done by an Environmental Defense Fund Climate Corps Fellow.
