How to Take Action on Climate Change as a Woodland Steward

Learn about climate change in Minnesota and how you can take action as a woodland steward to prepare for its effects on forest ecosystems. The webinar will begin with a look at local climate change history and projections and will break down the basics of how to read climate data. From there, we'll go over the two main pathways of fighting climate change: mitigation and adaptation. The mitigation section will go over management actions individuals can take to help their woodlands mitigate climate change, such as increasing carbon sequestration and storage. The adaptation section will cover actions woodland stewards can take to adapt their forests to future climate change. The webinar will close out with a series of resource highlights for those who are inspired and looking to take action.
