Bill overview
This bill proposes establishing a special commission to study how incentives can be used to increase the amount of carbon removed from the atmosphere and stored in natural and working lands, such as forests and farms. The commission’s investigation will focus on developing incentive-based approaches to boost carbon sequestration and removal through these natural resources. The goal is to leverage nature’s ability to combat climate change by encouraging landowners and land managers to adopt practices that enhance carbon storage. Ultimately, this legislation aims to explore and recommend strategies for utilizing nature as a key component of Massachusetts’ climate solutions.
