This month, Adam interviews two researchers from the University of Michigan, Geoff Lewis and Spencer Checkoway, who received a USDA-AMS ACER grant to conduct a carbon lifecycle assessment of maple syrup production.
To help contribute to this research, contact Geoff Lewis at: glewis@umich.edu, and to view the results of this research, go to the Center for Sustainable Systems website: css.umich.edu.
This research will result in a calculator tool hosted on the CSS website for maple producers to better understand the sustainability and efficiency of their operations.
Additionally, there are a couple of reports available now related to this research. Find them under "Publications" here: https://css.umich.edu/people/student-researchers/spencer-checkoway.
