The webinar will outline the fundamental principles of nature-based solutions, focusing particularly on woodland creation. Alex MacKinnon, Carbon Project Manager with years of experience as a Forest Manager will explain the processes involved for projects registered with the UK Land Carbon Registry. 

David McCulloch, Head of CarbonStore who has 20 years’ experience in the financial sector will illustrate the significant benefits to an organisation’s Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) related efforts through a case study of carbon offsetting in Scotland.  

David McCulloch said: “CarbonStore’s nature-based solutions are certified by the UK’s Woodland and Peatland Carbon Codes, ensuring high levels of authenticity and credibility throughout. These standards are supported by the UK government and, by maintaining clear and comprehensive codes of conduct, adhere strictly to international carbon offsetting protocols. 

We are delighted to finally bring updated industry advice and guidance for businesses on projects available in the UK to encourage a cleaner, greener low carbon economy.” 

The live webinar will be chaired by Stuart Pearson, Chartered Forester and Business Development Director for Tilhill and will follow with a live Q&A panel. 

Stuart Pearson said: “CarbonStore works in partnership with Tilhill, as leaders in creating and managing woodlands and alongside Maelor Forest Nurseries, the UK’s most progressive commercial tree producer we can cultivate the finest forests and woodlands, we sow the seeds, plant the trees and tend to their growth to realise their greatest potential.  

Since 1948 we have planted over a billion trees and restored ancient woodlands across the UK, therefore we are delighted to be bringing this expertise to a variety of interested businesses seeking the best nature-based solution the UK has to offer.”
