Carbon Stewardship Workshop Video #6: Blue & green carbon projects in the Salish Sea – Policy Instruments

On March 17th 2021, Transition Salt Spring and Raincoast Conservation Foundation hosted the Green and Blue Carbon Stewardship Workshop. This is the sixth of the series of videos from that workshop.

In this session, Dirk Brinkman and Briony Penn discuss the policy changes required to make blue and forest carbon projects feasible in the Salish Sea. Importantly, collaboration and co-management are identified as key components of future carbon policy. More specifically, Brinkman emphasizes that the template of timber-centric management models of the past must be disposed of so the same mistakes are not made by designing a carbon-centric model.
