Elizabeth Metis Settlement Forest Carbon Project

Asset Description

• The Government of Canada has mandated minimum standards for carbon pricing across Canada and implemented a federal program applied to greenhouse gas-emitting industrial facilities in several provinces, including Alberta.
• Reforestation and the conservation of the boreal forest through improved forest management practices are creating carbon offsets through the combination of trees not being logged and their subsequent absorption of atmospheric CO2 through photosynthesis and sequestration of CO2 into their biomass.
