• In two decades of working in the Emerald Edge (stretching from the Pacific Northwest to Alaska), TNC and Nature United have seen the transformative impact of deep, trust-based partnerships between Indigenous Peoples and local communities and conservation groups, producing lasting benefits for both people and the planet. Through the carbon map, we’ve identified significant carbon losses in Oregon and Washington state, primarily due to forestry activities. These areas present potential focal points for enhancing carbon storage and sequestration through natural climate solutions projects. Additionally, British Columbia and Alaska, with their extensive old-growth forests and increasing Indigenous land ownership, offer substantial opportunities for large-scale forest-based climate mitigation. These efforts can also address historical and ongoing issues related to equity and access. Learn how the Emerald Edge Carbon Map informs community-based projects, helping to assess their effectiveness in combating climate change while aligning with community priorities: https://lnkd.in/gTjqMuMC

  As we continue our advocacy from #ClimateWeekNYC to #COP29, TNC is pushing for bold, tangible action to address climate change. Our COP29 Scorecard is built around three core priorities: 1️⃣ Phase Out Fossil Fuels: We must accelerate the equitable phase-out of fossil fuels to achieve net zero by 2050 or sooner and transition to renewable energy. 2️⃣ Build Climate-Resilient Societies: We must empower groups who steward nature to secure their homes, livelihoods and futures. 3️⃣ Invest in Nature-Positive Financial Flows: We must inspire commitments and investments in nature- positive projects, policies and practices. And as you can read below, we are coming with ten specific policy requests we want to see implemented at the global level. COP29 is our chance to turn promises into progress. Let’s push for the action we need. 💚 #EveryActionMatters

• Thank you to The Nature Conservancy's Oregon volunteers! This month, we hosted our annual, 2-day volunteer event on the Zumwalt Prairie Preserve in NE Oregon. Our hard-working volunteer crew gave back to nature and restored the landscape by removing 1.3 miles of fencing and rebuilding the grazing infrastructure on the 33,000-acre preserve in NE Oregon.
