Urban Forest Carbon Sequestration Opportunities
Forests have a vast potential to capture and store atmospheric carbon. Rapidly expanding urban and suburban areas in the U.S. South offer an opportunity to implement carbon sequestration projects through urban forest programs. Faculty and staff in the School are currently investigating the opportunities for developing urban forest carbon projects, based on detailed examinations of land available for planting in cities, as well as public attitudes toward urban forest carbon projects in the U.S. South. Projects are underway to assess the amount of urban land that is available for planting, and the portion of this that can actually be planted given economic, biological, social, and other planning constraints. In addition, projects are underway to evaluate public attitudes towards urban forest carbon projects, the results of which could be used to develop guidelines that will help generate public support. For more information on these projects, please contact Dr. Jacek Siry (jsiry@warnell.uga.edu).
