What about the wetlands - are you buying carbon on those too? 

Yes, even though scientists have yet to determine the net greenhouse gas benefits of wetlands.  In anticipation that there may be some future value for carbon associated with wetlands protection, and to simplify program administration, DU will include and will purchase carbon on small wetlands located within the grassland easement boundary.  The payment schedule will be the same as for grasslands.  Carbon credits will not be purchased on large, permanent wetlands or lakes.
