Bill overview
The Growing Climate Solutions Act of 2020 aims to help farmers, ranchers, and private forest landowners reduce greenhouse gas emissions and sequester carbon. It establishes a voluntary program within the Department of Agriculture to certify technical assistance providers and third-party verifiers who help these landowners implement climate-friendly practices. The bill also seeks to facilitate participation in greenhouse gas credit markets and provide technical support to overcome barriers to entry. Ultimately, the goal is to encourage sustainable land use and contribute to climate change mitigation.
