Blue Carbon Law Symposium

This past summer, Dr. David Lagomasino (ICP), was an invited speaker at the first Blue Carbon Law Symposium held at the University of Georgia through a partnership with SC Sea Grant. The goal of the symposium was to bring legal scholars, environmental investors, carbon registry specialists, coastal and marine decision makers, and scientists to identify opportunities and challenges for coastal blue carbon investments. Dr. Lagomasino presented on the novel use of remote sensing and satellite data that can augment the monitoring, reporting, and verification of blue carbon projects. Dr. Sean Charles and ICS PhD Student Maria Gomez were also in attendance from ECU and engaged in discussions regarding blue carbon science and economics.
