Subject | Cap them, but don't trade our forests |
Comment | The cap part of this program is a good strategy. Industry should be willingly doing everything possible to stop source pollution, asap. Doing any type of clearcutting of our forests is a bad strategy. Californians and the biodiversity that lives in natural forests need uneven-management, and select cutting. Forests are currently being clearcut even without your c&t program. Of which itself is controversial. Are you intending to do more clearcutting than the Board of Forestry is already allowing? See satellite images of what we have lost just in the last 10 years. Please don't let only a market economy dictate how California faces climate change. Please don't ignore the voices and the science of the people, for example; clearcutting forests will not sequester more carbon. Clearcutting more forests will defiantly stress even more fragile ecosystems across the state and drive to extinction species of animals and plants that may have not even been identified. You can always take the cap off, you will never be able to put back the natural forests. Please no more clearcutting California's natural forests. |
