Over the next few weeks we will present a series of interviews featuring Harvesting Clean Energy Research Director Patrick Mazza talking about his new series of briefings, Building the Biocarbon Economy: How the Northwest Can Lead. The series offers insights on how Pacific Northwest farms, forests, cities and businesses can return carbon to the soil while improving their own economic viability
By changing land management practices farmers can improve soil carbon and fertility while reducing input costs. Bioeconomic development can transform biomass waste streams such as animal manures and timber residues into valuable products including energy and soil amendments.
The series looks at tools to support working lands practice changes including ecosystem services markets, land conservation payments and premium products marketing.
