WMAT asked SIG to help with the development of a second, even larger, forest carbon offset project. The goal was to manage the forest to increase and conserve carbon stocks \u2013 and therefore carbon dioxide sequestration \u2013 through uneven-aged management. SIG\u2019s financial analysis of the anticipated growth and harvesting regimes captured all costs and returns given the legal, physical, and biological constraints. We found that the new growth and harvesting regimes were financially feasible and ecologically sound, and our ongoing work on this project seeks to implement and expand these plans.<\/p><p>The long term relationship between SIG and the White Mountain Apache Tribe is an example of our commitment to enduring relationships that yield real ecosystem and community benefits.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d4b85e3 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"d4b85e3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70e822c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"70e822c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8129538 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8129538\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Empowering Future Generations<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0c438bf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0c438bf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCarbon credit projects like this are legally required to last a century, so long term collaboration and commitment is essential.
