Protect our forests, no carbon dioxide storage there ~ Our national forests should be protected from corporate greed, NOT used as a dumping ground for industrial carbon waste. Write your comment to the US Forest Service today!
Carbon capture and storage is a false solution proposed by the most-polluting industries — one that only prolongs our dependence on fossil fuels. The United States Forest Service has suggested our national forests and grasslands are the right places to inject captured carbon into the earth.
Not only is this dangerous for our environment, climate and health, but it sets a dangerous precedent that opens the door for further exploitation of our natural resources. Our public lands should be protected from corporate greed, NOT used as a dumping ground for climate-damaging industrial carbon.
