This collection examines how management of natural and working lands (forests, wetlands, and agricultural land) can enhance community resilience in North Carolina and help the state meet its greenhouse gas emissions goals.
Conservation planning tools for NC's people & nature An introduction and user's guide to two new tools from Conservation Trust for North Carolina & Duke University Conservation organizations and land trusts in North Carolina are increasingly focused on how their work can contribute to both human and ecosystem resilience and adaptation to climate change, as well as directly mitigate climate change through carbon storage and sequestration. Recent state executive and legislative actions also underscore the importance of natural systems for climate adaptation and mitigation, and may provide additional funding for conservation and restoration for those purposes in the near term. To make it more efficient for conservation...
Natural and working lands – forests, farmland, and wetlands – make up more than 80% of North Carolina's area and provide a variety of benefits to our communities and economy. The importance of natural and working lands has been recognized in several recent planning efforts, including the state’s Natural & Working Lands Action Plan (part of the NC Climate Risk & Resilience Plan ) and the Coastal Habitat Protection Plan 2021 Amendment (currently in draft form). These plans brought together many sources of information to help quantify the benefits we are currently getting from these lands, and additional benefits that could be created through management actions. To make this information more accessible,...
