CARBON CREDITS

These programs are new and are undergoing rapid changes. We have been following the progress of these programs for the benefit of members. The Kentucky Woodland Owners Association has concerns with the potentially negative impact of any program that does not support ongoing forest management practices. Without ongoing management to control invasive species, forest health will be degraded. We believe carbon credit programs could be designed to support forest health and productivity, while sequestering carbon; but, it is not a simple one size fits all proposition. If you plan to pursue any of the programs described below, their provisions may have changed significantly by the time you enroll.  We do not endorse any of these programs, and we suggest that you seek legal and professional advice before participating in any of them.  If you have any experience in dealing with forest carbon credits, we would love to hear from you. We can be reached at info@kwoa.net.
