Brief for research on tree planting schemes in North West Wales

Tender description

Climate change is the greatest challenge currently facing humanity, and has precipitated immense interest in sequestering carbon, the price of which has doubled in the last twelve months. However, this created new problems for Wales, with international corporations buying up Welsh farms, which has fragmented communities and failed to plant the right trees in the right places. We therefore are commissioning research into the development of a local, community-driven solution based on our previous work and successful counterparts such as Stump Up For Trees.NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the Sell2Wales Web Site at https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=121372.The buyer has indicated that it will accept electronic responses to this notice via the Postbox facility.
