How reliable are forest carbon sink estimates? A new study on Northeast China's secondary forests finds fine root NPP drives over 78% of estimation uncertainty.
A smarter framework cuts that uncertainty by up to 87%. doi.org/10.1007/s116...

The Biggest Trees Hold the Most Carbon. That’s Why Luxury Hardwood Is a Climate Problem. - FoGo - Curated for the Intentional Consumer A new 2026 study shows big Amazon trees hold up to 93% of forest carbon. A separate investigation traces tropical hardwood into global supply chains. The damage is hiding in plain sight.

DNR identifies carbon, wildfire-avoidance and water-leasing as potential markets for ecosystem services Department of Natural Resources told the House Ag Committee that contractor screening found market potential for regulatory and voluntary forest carbon, avoided-wildfire emissions credits and water leasing on DNR lands, identifying roughly 15,000 candidate acres; DNR recommended pilots, third-party developers and further data work before scaling.

The Washington Department of Natural Resources has uncovered exciting market opportunities for carbon credits and wildfire mitigation on 15,000 acres of state-managed forests, but they're urging caution before diving in.

Most forest carbon offset schemes fail. Here's a four-step road map to fix them. Many individuals and companies eager to reduce their climate impact purchase carbon “offsets,” paying for an equivalent amount of carbon to be removed via projects that protect or restore forests, wetlands, and other natural ecosystems that sequester carbon. But these...

Illegal loggers profit from Brazil’s carbon credit projects How a system designed to protect the world’s biggest rainforest is funding businesses with a track record of illegal deforestation.

Illegal loggers are cashing in on Brazil’s carbon credit boom—many projects are run by those fined for deforestation, duping the system and greenwashing with global registries and buyers like Boeing & Telefónica: www.reuters.com/business/env...
