What and Where is Blue Carbon?

The Blue Carbon Story Coastal ecosystems are at great risk –Significant store of “blue carbon” –Many other ecosystem services Risks are driven by economic pressures to convert (aquaculture, agriculture, development,…) Global climate mitigation efforts could change economic incentives for protection –Payments for reducing conversion and restoration –Similar to forests (REDD+) –Not yet in UNFCCC system Initial test of concept –Science: how much carbon can be lost/restored over time –Economics: at what cost –Policy: can current policy frameworks adapt? New ones needed?

Preliminary Assessment

Can the Economics Work? 5 Market Value of Carbon Cost of Protection (Direct and Opportunity Costs)

The Economics May Work in Some Cases 6 Potential Carbon-Credit Values Cost of Protection For Comparison: Opportunity Costs TBD Opportunity Costs for Shrimp Farming (others TBD) Values Vary by Location, Destruction Method and Economic Activity

Economic Case Study: Mangroves and Shrimp Farms

8 What Next? Estimate stocks, emission rates and protection costs under a wider range of conditions

Acknowledgments Linden Trust for Conservation Nicholas Institute colleagues: Linwood Pendleton, Aaron Jenkins, Samantha Sifleet, Alexis Baldera Blue Carbon workshop participants (Nov 2010 at Duke): Christopher Craft, Steve Crooks, Daniel Donato, James Fourqurean, Boone Kaufman, Núria Marba Bordalba, Patrick Megonigal, and Emily Pidgeon
