Over the past four decades, forests have moderated global warming and climate change by absorbing about one-quarter of the carbon emitted by human activities. Forests are a vital part of the carbon cycle, storing and releasing this important element in a dynamic process of growth, decay, disturbance, and renewal. In the United States, West Virginia has the most carbon-dense forests East of the Mississippi. In this program you can learn about and discuss the latest science on forests and the climate crisis, and what forest management strategies can protect our planetary future. Join us for a webinar with Dr. William Moomaw, co-director of the Global Development and Environment Insitute at Tufts University and Dr. Sam Davis of the Dogwood Alliance.
