Carbon is the fourth most abundant element in the universe, it is a common element for all life on earth, it is the second most abundant element in the human body, and it is also the greenhouse gas driving climate change, but how much do we all know about this essential element? Sustainable Woodstock is excited to be launching a new work-study series about carbon and how we can help manage carbon on our own properties through healthy forestry practices.

For our first Work-Study Group discussion Vikke Vas from Marsh Billings Rockefeller National Historical Park will present and lead a discussion about the history of conservation in Woodstock and how unsustainable deforestation of Vermont led to a legacy of conservation and the longest managed forest in the United States. Everyone is welcome and the workshop is free.

RSVP with Zach@sustainablewoodstock.org to receive the suggested reading materials or to learn about the other upcoming discussion topics on carbon in 2018.
