There are many tools that can be used to estimate the forest carbon stored in your forest! Go to www.northeastforestcarbon.org (or use the link in bio) to find them, we promise it’ll be worth it.

Managing forests and keeping forests as forests are carbon friendly actions. If we manage and harvest some trees, assuring that the least amount of fossil fuels is used in the harvest process, we reduce overall emissions from that operation

When we use timber and wood to build buildings instead of concrete and steel, we are building a much more carbon-friendly structure because the wood in the building continues to store the carbon that was originally sequestered and stored in the tree!

Important fact: when trees are made into solid wood products like boards and timber, the carbon in those trees continues to be stored long term.

When harvesting trees it is crucial to follow the best management practices to protect water quality to therefore protect the soil and the carbon within that soil!

Per our last post, when we harvest trees we need to make sure we don’t damage the soil with logging equipment to maintain good carbon sequestration and storage in our forests

When we harvest trees, making sure we don’t damage the remaining trees with logging equipment is key for maintaining good carbon sequestration and storage in our forests

In the forest of the northeast, animals, especially deer, sometimes eat many of the new tree seedlings, causing the forest to have trouble regenerating naturally. Which is why controlling the deer population is a key task of the state fish and wildlife agencies

In the northeast, after we harvest, we generally don’t have to plant more trees because our climate has adequate rainfall and trees that regenerate well from seeds, stumps and good soils

A really important thing we can do for forest carbon and our climate is to make sure all forested land is fully stocked with trees. We do that by assuring adequate natural regeneration and sometimes planting trees to fill empty spaces.

Forest carbon is not only stored in live trees – it is also stored in standing dead trees and dead wood on the ground!
