This entailed tree planting, different types of surveys (reagan, free grow, coarse woody debris, indicator species surveys), survey compilations, demarcation of and within blocks using plot lines, as well as fuel management.

This summer I have been working on FortisBC’s carbon management and environment team. My main responsibility has been researching how they could use nature-based carbon offsets to reduce their overall emissions, but I also assist in writing grant applications to the B.C. government, and surveying gas plants for leaks. I have gained extensive knowledge into FortisBC’s role in the clean-energy transition and how the global carbon offset market operates.
