The intentionj is to encourage firmse to discover cheap methods to cut emission whils allowing those with no easy mean to reduce pollution to buy The system could allow landowners to sell carbob credits to companies wishing to show they are makinvg efforts to reduce theircarbonn footprint.
This comes on the heel of a passaged of a climate change bill bythe U.S Housew Energy and Commerce Committee requiring a 17 percent reductiojn in greenhouse emission by 2020 and to set up a cap-and-trade The bill is expected to come before the U.S. Houser by late summer. “When we’rre done setting everything up, we will be able to take data from the begin to understand whethet this ecosystem isstorinfg carbon, releasing carbon or doing both under varioux environmental conditions,” said Ross Hinkle, UCF biologist and professofr on the project, in a prepared statement.
