Workable Solutions for Nature

Nature and America’s working lands underpin today’s economy through resources like clean water, food generation, sustainable timber and wildlife habitat. Nature also serves as a bridge to our clean energy future, providing critical carbon sequestration and storage. How do we capitalize on the need for our natural world to support our planet, while continuing to ensure our forests and agricultural lands provide for people as well? This discussion will explore the range of natural climate solutions and present a menu of policy options and best practices that can be employed to meet the challenges and opportunities at hand.
