The State of Minnesota
The Climate Change Subcabinet was created to identify policies and strategies that will put Minnesota back on track to meet or exceed our goals to reduce statewide greenhouse gas emissions across all sectors and to identify policies and strategies that will enhance the climate resiliency of Minnesota's natural resources, working lands, and communities. Successful policy and strategy development requires that those impacted, including Tribal Nations, frontline communities, indigenous peoples, industry, and workers, among others, have a voice and the opportunity to participate in the process. The state of Minnesota acknowledges and supports the unique status of Minnesota Tribes and their absolute right to existence, self-governance, and self-determination.

Exhibitors
NICC is an Indian-led non-profit program that helps tribal nations and individual Indian landowners take advantage of carbon credit and enter environmental commodities markets through the development of carbon sequestration or offset projects. NICC views these projects as economic development opportunities that preserve tribal nation and tribal member land ownership while returning profits to reservations economies and communities.
