Can you use your land for carbon credits? This is just one of the questions that gets answered on today's episode of the National Land Podcast. At the heart of today’s conversation is The Nectar Exchange, a non-profit group dedicated to conservation in land management. Doug Bruggeman is a Ph.D. in natural resource management, Steve Martin is a Professional Wetlands Scientist, and they’re both here today to tell us all about carbon credits. Their recent article titled Additionality of Voluntary Carbon Credits for Wetland, Stream, and Species Mitigation Activities in the United States serves as the backbone for this conversation.

Every outdoors enthusiast has probably dreamed at some point of making a career guiding adventures in the outdoors. Today, we are talking to one of our new agents, Taylor Heithold, who works in South Carolina and Georgia. Taylor spent the past decade working as a guide all around the United States. He took the route of first going to guide school and then traveling with the seasons. Taylor is now putting this experience to use helping others to buy and sell land. This is Taylor’s journey from hunting guide to land sales.

We are here with Georgia land real estate agent, Steve Chapman, and Dr. Yanshu Li of the Warnell School of Forestry & Natural Resources at the University of Georgia. Dr. Li is an associate professor of Forest Economics and Taxation and Steve Chapman is a forester with 35 years of experience, so this should give you a good idea of where the conversation is headed. We are here to discuss probably the most important part of harvesting timber and that is establishing your basis. Not establishing your timber basis is common and it can be a significant error when it comes time to harvest trees. This is the kind of episode that makes podcasts so amazing. It’s great information and you don’t even have to be a forester or timber investor to get into this stuff.
