Carbon Offset Benefits
KENTUCKY...
For those who are interested in purchasing carbon offsets, a new Web site offers the chance to have the money benefit landowners in central Appalachia. The site is sponsored by the Appalachian Carbon Partnership, which is made up of groups from Kentucky, Ohio and Virginia. Carbon offsets are purchased by those who want to balance out their carbon footprint. The money goes to family forest owners who are practicing sustainable forest management, allowing more carbon to be stored in their forests. The site features a tool that visitors can use to estimate their carbon footprint. Visit www.AppalachianCarbonPartnership.org
