Learn to sequester CO2 at home with a botanist and author of the book Climate-wise Landscaping

Join our final Sequestration Week webinar for practical solutions on how to &quot;Sequester at Home.&quot; This webinar will take an active and optimistic approach to dealing with our changing climate by summarizing some of the actions that property owners or managers (homeowners, communities, and municipalities) can take now to become more Earth-friendly. In general, each action suggested accomplishes at least one of three objectives: <ul><li>To help the landscape survive climate change, </li><li>To help wildlife survive climate change, and </li><li>To help to mitigate climate change - including through carbon sequestration</li></ul>This presentation is inspired by the book <a href="https://susanreedla.com/books/climate-wise-landscaping.html" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">&quot;Climate-Wise Landscaping: Practical Actions for a Sustainable Future,&quot;</a> coauthored by our panelist Ginny Stibolt - botanist and Florida garden writer, and Sue Reed, a landscape Architect in Massachusetts.
