| Abstract | Carbon sequestration is becoming an important land management objective because growing trees and vegetation can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Many scientists believe that increasing the concentration of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will affect the climate. Concern over human-induced climate change prompted many nations, including the United States, to sign and later ratify the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in the 1990s. The agreement to work to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations has spawned an increasing number of discussions and activities about actions that can reduce atmospheric greenhouse gases. More recently, and at a more local level, states are increasingly working for clean air, including the possibility of regulating the amount of carbon dioxide release. |
