Our workshop was facilitated by Vicky West, Forestry Commission.

Thanks to assistance from the Forestry Commission, ICARB is able to share outcomes of its highly successful workshop ‘Carbon Accounting and Land-use: is it possible to have an integrated land-use planning tool for Scotland?’

The event, held on 5 February, discussed various approaches to harmonising accounting methods across land-use types including forestry, agriculture and peatlands.

Full minutes, accompanied by speaker’s powerpoint presentations, are available on our website here.

The workshop’s outcomes will also be discussed in detail at next week’s International Conference on Carbon Accounting, where Vicky West will be taking forward these discussions to integrate with the wider programme on carbon management.
