Registration Open for the First Blue Carbon Law Symposium

Courtesy of NAA:
The first Sea Grant Blue Carbon Law Symposium will be held at the University of Georgia in Athens, GA, May 17-18, 2023. The Symposium will convene legal scholars, ESG investors, conservation finance and carbon registry specialists, coastal and marine decision-makers, and scientists to co-create a whole-field understanding of the role and opportunity for coastal blue carbon investment.
 
Their objectives are to:

• Understand the legal and policy context of carbon credit markets and how blue carbon fits with these markets.
• Discuss what “blue carbon” means and the state of blue carbon science.
• Assess the quality of claims about blue carbon project potential under qualification conditions.
• Learn about specific blue carbon projects being developed in the U.S. and internationally.
• Identify challenges, barriers, and social equity needs to determine successful blue carbon projects.
