Have you ever wondered how you can reduce your contribution to global climate change?

Do you want to support the local economy and protect the natural environment at the same time?

Have you ever heard the phrase ‘forest carbon offset’ but were not sure what it meant?

The Northwest Natural Resource Group, the NW Neutral®
Program, and Jefferson LandWorks Collaborative invite you to attend an afternoon presentation and field tour to help you
answer these questions.

• Learn how the forest carbon market works

• Learn how you can offset your carbon emissions by

purchasing carbon offsets from local forests

• Hop on a bus and meet 3 local landowners who are selling carbon offsets from their forests right here on the Olympic Peninsula
