Researchers from the University of Georgia received a $1.3 million grant to examine ways pine forests could be use to mitigate and adapt to climate change.
The award is part of a larger series of grants from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to look at how pine trees could be a solution to this global issue. A consortium of 11 universities is working on different parts of the research.
The UGA research team is looking for new ways to manage pine forests so that they could decrease greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
