Working with Cities and Partners to Expand Carbon Farming
StopWaste will present an overview of how cities can participate in the growing carbon farming movement, and provide examples of how cities have incorporated carbon farming and other organics based practices into climate resilience planning, urban forestry plans, design standards, purchasing, landscape management, and staff education. Attendees will also learn about opportunities to reach beyond their boundaries through collaboration with other public agencies, utilities, and special districts. Also discussed will be the effort to add to the carbon farming knowledge base by providing data points from the urban landscape.
