They do. It is a proven fact that they emit carbon when they are planted on and again when they are harvested and replanted. We are going towards reduced carbon in this country so we do not have to pay fines from Europe. If these lands produce more carbon than they suck in and we are making carbon in this country, are we going to refund the carbon tax to people?
