LPDD Recommendation: “Congress could condition funding under the Forest Legacy Program, the Healthy Forest Reserve Program, and the Community Forest and Open Space Conservation Program on the adoption of sustainable management practices that increase carbon sequestration capacity on forestlands.”
LPDD Recommendation: “Congress could grant USFS authority under the federal Forest Legacy Program to allow for bioenergy feedstock production, while at the same time requiring decarbonization-driven standards for such lands.”
LPDD Recommendation: “USFS can implement regulatory measures that require no net loss of CO2 into the atmosphere from the lands it manages.”
