Carbon Market Exchange for Landowners with NCX

On this week's show will be discussing a potential opportunity for forest owners seeking to sequester carbon. NCX's--Alex Macintosh--will discuss how his company helps forest owners "market carbon" in order to mitigate climate change.

Alex is the Director of Landowner Services @ NCX – formerly known as Silvia Terra. Alex focuses on strategy & execution initiatives that engage forest landowners of all sizes in NCX.

"NCX provides a marketplace for forest carbon payments. Their carbon credits represent real, immediate, and cost-efficient change on the landscape. NCX is starting with carbon, but will soon include markets for biodiversity, fire risk, and other forest benefits. In 2019, NCX partnered with Microsoft to produce Basemap, the first high-resolution inventory of every forest acre in the US. Basemap data delivers insight to forest stakeholders ranging from governments and conservation groups to landowners large and small. Since 2010, this philosophy has guided NCX's development of practical tools for America's professional foresters. Combining expertise in biometrics, remote sensing, and big data, NCX's Precision Forestry products save time and money in the field and in the office."
