Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science Adaptation Workbook

Many climate adaptation planning tools don't address the unique needs, values and cultures of indigenous communities. This Tribal Climate Adaptation Menu provides a framework to integrate indigenous and traditional knowledge, culture, language and history into the climate adaptation planning process

The new guide provides criteria for the selection, completion, and management of land protection projects, for the successful capture and storage of carbon.

If your organization is looking to integrate climate change into land protection and management decisions, this session will explain how your land trust can take advantage of Land and Climate Program Grant funding to create climate-informed land conservation, stewardship or communications plans.

Open Space Institute developed this guide to help groups that protect and steward land determine how much carbon a forest stores today, and how much additional carbon could be sequestered by 2050.

This document was created by the Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science in collaboration with the Land Trust Alliance. This Quick Guide was developed specifically to support land trusts and serve as a steppingstone for the process of adaptation planning.

American Farmland Trust released Smart Solar℠ principles for solar development that will ensure we maintain our ability to produce food, fuel and fiber to sustain our nation for generations to come.

​This tool allows non-profits, communities, and policy makers to view the resilience results and use​ basic analytic tools to understand the Resilient Sites Report and assess specific areas.

As climate change impacts intensify around the world, nature-based carbon sequestration and storage are essential tools to addressing the climate crisis. The question remains where to focus conservation in order to maximize climate benefits. The Conservation Carbon Map can help answer that and more.

This is a sample of two online tools for identifying priority areas for conservation action and estimating benefit metrics for specific properties developed by the Conservation Trust for North Carolina and the Nicholas Institute for Energy, Environment & Sustainability at Duke University.

The Open Space Institute and the Land Trust Alliance are pleased to announce the 2024 Land and Climate Grant Program. This online information session will make sure you’re able to build the best application possible.
