Gordon Smith

Gordon Smith, Ph.D. is the principal of Ecofor LLC, a firm that works with project developers, greenhouse gas emission offset buyers, and landowners to analyze proposed emission mitigation projects, implement projects, and trade resulting greenhouse gas emission offsets. This mitigation work builds on Dr. Smith’s work developing cost-effective methods for measuring change in forest and soil carbon stocks, including analysis of the effects of sampling design on statistical variability of carbon measurements, and quantifying the greenhouse gas emission benefits of biomass energy projects. He has consulted to states, the federal government, and local entities on greenhouse gas emission mitigation policy. He has implemented projects under a variety of greenhouse gas accounting systems, and developed contracts and institutional arrangements to define and exchange greenhouse gas emission offsets.

Dr. Smith has a Ph.D. in Forest Management from the University of Washington, a Master of Public Policy from Harvard University, and an undergraduate degree from Reed College.
