A webinar was held on 25 September relating to how planting trees on farm impacts on biodiversity and natural capital.
A range of models were used to examine spatially-explicit carbon sequestration and changes in biodiversity over time.
The webinar canvassed benefits associated with planting environmentally bespoke species in terms of carbon sequestration, plant persistence, threatened species habitat and effective habitat condition.
We briefly discussed tools for carbon and natural capital accounting, including the natural capital dashboard we have developed.
The webinar was attended by over 210 people.
