What is carbon sequestration? Isn't it a scam? How does it work? Who decides the price? 

We cover these and more questions about the carbon sequestration and carbon markets space in today's conversation with Matt Smith from Finite Carbon. 

Finite Carbon is a platform helping land owners get verified Carbon Credits, as well as connect them with the buyers of these credits. And soon, this will be available to landowners with as little as 40 acres. 

Very exciting work they are doing at Finite Carbon. We are glad we can bring this episode to you.
