The Pew Foundation’s Blue Carbon Network is hosting a webinar on Tuesday, Nov. 7, 9 a.m., that will showcase a new tool developed for Oregon's Coos Bay estuary that estimates current and potential blue carbon values to help inform land management and climate policy and funding decisions. This tool can be a model for other states and regions interested in protecting and restoring coastal wetlands for blue carbon and other benefits. The webinar will feature experts from Silvestrum Climate Associates, Sea & Shores Solutions and the Institute for Applied Ecology. The speakers will showcase efforts to incorporate carbon data into existing spatial data for the Coos Bay estuary and discuss how this tool can support climate policy efforts states already have underway.
