"Class on Grass" - Grassland Management Webinar - Free for members!
Thursday 20 February 2025
10:00 - 12:15, MS Teams
Grasslands have a huge potential for locking up carbon, not only due to the plants we can see on the surface, but also due to the relationships between the plants, fungi, bacteria and many other species which help enrich the soil with carbon. However, how we manage these grasslands, ranging from large open spaces to our roadside verges and even our lawns and gardens is important.
By bringing together a wealth of different local authority and environmental experts and practitioners, APSE hopes to show how its members can manage their grassland areas in a more environmentally sustainable manner and in doing so reduce the impacts of climate change and at the same time increase the opportunities for biodiversity. This webinar will also look at how to gain elected member, staff, and public support for the necessary changes to traditional grassland management.
Speakers confirmed include:
- Wayne Priestley, APSE Associate and author of APSE's upcoming Grassland Management Report
