Green Piece : Capturing CO2 = Greener 2Morrow

Study may lead to cut 
in greenhouse gases

Though the technology and study are very exciting, Karen L. Punch, Boise communications manager, expected it would be a "few years before this technology might be commercialized for use in the industry."

Nevertheless this step is ground-breaking.

"This technology is important because it may enable pulp and paper companies like Boise Inc. to capture and permanently sequester carbon from our manufacturing processes, which would enable us to further reduce our greenhouse gas emissions," Punch added. "It could also represent an economic opportunity related to potential future developments in carbon credit markets." PPR
