Areas of Focus
Climate Change
The benefits of nature-based climate solutions, including conserving forests, grasslands, wetlands, and healthy soil, in mitigating the impacts of climate change work both ways— absorbing greenhouse gases and also preventing the release of significant levels of carbon emissions that would be caused by deforestation and conversion of open lands to active development.
The land conservation work of land trusts is essential to Connecticut’s efforts in curbing climate change while also serving to engage and empower healthier local communities, protect wildlife and important plant species, ensure cleaner air and water, and provide for other co-benefits of conserving and stewarding greenspaces.
