About the Webinar

Carbon farming is emerging as both a revenue opportunity and a legal minefield for rural landholders. For lawyers advising in this space, the challenge lies in cutting through the schemes, contracts and untested rights to ensure clients are properly protected. This session will explore the following:

  • The Emissions Reduction Fund and Australian Carbon Credit Units scheme:
    • what is involved
    • what documents are required
    • what to look for when clients are approached to sign up
    • timeframes to receive benefits
  • Practical ways in which carbon can be sequestered on rural properties and the legal issues which can arise in relation to each:
    • soil carbon projects
    • vegetation management
    • securing carbon sequestration against title
  • Case examples to illustrate some of the legal concerns yet to be judicially tested:
    • rights to stored carbon underground
    • dealing with native title and types of land tenure and aggregation activities
