Swedish climate compensation- agriculture as a carbon sink
Svensk klimatkompensation- jordbruket som kolsänka
Objectives
Developing a tool to make climate compensation possible through increased carbon storage in Swedish agricultural land. By combining existing technological solutions, the innovation connects multiple users on both sides of the service: farmers who can get paid to store coal, and companies or individuals who want to climate compensate (carbon offsetting).
Objectives
Ett verktyg för att göra det möjligt att klimatkompensera genom ökad kolinlagring i svensk jordbruksmark. Genom att kombinera befintliga tekniska lösningar kopplar innovationen ihop multipla användare på båda sidor av tjänsten: lantbrukare som kan få betalt för att lagra in kol, och företag eller privatpersoner som vill klimatkompensera.
Activities
During the project, relevant actors will be invited to participate in development to make the innovation easily accessible to user groups. The innovation group has broad expertise, including farmers with specialist knowledge in carbon storage, as well as research expertise in climate compensation and sustainable food production.
Activities
Under projektets gång kommer relevanta aktörer bjudas in att delta i utveckling för att göra innovationen lättillgänglig för de olika användargrupperna. Innovationsgruppen har bred kompetens, som bland annat omfattar lantbrukare med specialkunskaper om kolinlagring, forskarkompetens om klimatkompensering och om hållbar matproduktion.
