| Comment | Please consider a review of carbon sequestration and according the National Instories Heqlth research (see below link) "plants are crucial players involved in carbon sequestration". Specifically, turfgrass which captures and stores atmospheric CO2 in its plant biomass (root system). Significant and detrimental air quality effects are occurring unchecked by the false claims of water savings through mass turf reduction programs. The heat sinks and carbon emissions released are simply profound! I urge CARB to act in a regulatory fashion to protect the mass carbon release going on today. Please see the NIH article to better understand this issue. Jeff Beardsley https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9571228/ |
