We think western-Montana Democratic legislators are on the right track when it comes to helping carbon sequestration become a reality in the state.
An IR State Bureau story http://helenair.com/articles/2008/12/30/state/65st_081230_xgrcarbon.txt Tuesday cited four of them who have requested bills addressing the issue.
Sen.-elect Ron Erickson of Missoula, a retired UM environmental studies professor, wants to beef up rule making for the process of pumping waste carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels into the ground, including giving ownership of that space to the surface owners. He also is pushing a bill requiring coal companies to capture their carbon or offset it by buying carbon credits.
