Ecosystems whether existing or restored are best managed when they are integral to the health of local communities. ❏ Stakeholder Engagement Consider at every level (beyond mere financial involvement). STEPS 1. Demonstrate viability of blue carbon projects through a network of projects. 2. Fully integrate blue carbon initiatives into existing and new policy 3. Ensure projects have excellent management protocols: clear and implementable 4. Define clear project methodology PHOTO: Nico Carrera https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b12e00d365f022327288477/1569753292338-ZDWAYYQT9X3JYXMRP4JV/KP+blue+ventures.png Blue Carbon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b12e00d365f022327288477/1569697323045-ERDZJIHAIAS1IDMM06P7/44703980624_bcd2afbbd9_o-2.png Blue Carbon FIGURE 1: Oceanic Blue Carbon Mechanisms from Grid Arendal.
