How do we make it so that a tree is worth MORE standing than it is cut down? This is the exact question that this week's guest is working to answer!

Dr. Max Holmes is the President of Woodwell Climate Research Center, and he joined us in episode 138 to discuss their work on the most important things in the most important places. Our discussion covers the controversial topic of carbon credits, natural climate solutions, and even the critical carbon sink in the Arctic permafrost!
