Michigan Conservation
and Climate Initiative
(MCCI)
The Michigan Conservation and Climate Initiative (MCCI) is a joint project between the Delta Institute, the Michiagn Association of Conservation Dixstricts, and the State of Michigan. The project allows farmers and landowners to earn greenhouse gas emissions credits when they use conservation tillage, plant grasses or trees, or capture methane with manure digesters. Conservation practices store carbon in the soil and plants that would otherwise form carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Manure digesters produce energy and prevent methane from being released to the atmosphere. Both carbon disxide and methane are greenhouse gases that contribute to global climate change.
