Carbon forestry resources open for FIEA members
Friday 11 Nov 2011
Carbon Forestry 2011 was the first conference of its type run in New Zealand this year. The event organised by the Forest Industry Engineering Association (FIEA) certainly was timely, as evidenced by excellent turnout in Auckland on 13-14 July 2011. The event attracted a record turnout of around 250 forest growers and owners, investors, financial institutions, brokers/traders and corporate entities that were starting to look at acquiring larger volumes of carbon credits to manage their liability.
A cross section of key papers from the mid-July conference can now be accessed by FIEA members (along with over 400 recent resources) by clicking here.
