Carbon and biodiversity markets associated with planting trees

This video describes introductory principles and opportunities for landholders to participate in carbon and/or biodiversity markets associated with planting trees on farm. Examples are made with respect to the Australian Government carbon market, although principles of other payment schemes are similar. The video includes and overview of: 1. Plantation forestry, 2. Reforestation and afforestation 3. Native plantings (environmental or mallee species) 4. Carbon market rules, including establishment of a baseline, additionality, permanence, measurability, verifiability, conservatism 5. Measuring carbon sequestration using physical samples and/or modelling 6. The Nature Repair Market, a biodiversity market for land restoration 7. Potential for 'stacking', where income can be gained from both biodiversity and carbon markets 8. The carbon versus mitigation conundrum 9. Temporal trade-offs between carbon sequestration and provision of biodiversity habitat and wider ecosystems services 10. Co-benefits and trade-offs associated with planting trees, such as reduced lamb/calve mortality, shading and shelter, pollination, pest control, fire risk, land appreciation, aesthetics etc. 11.
