We must REDUCE EMISSIONS of pollutants and CO2. Not only are the forests incapable of absorbing the huge quantities of CO2 emitted by fossil fuel consumption, but also they are, in many regions, slowing down in growth and suffering increasing mortality due to the adverse effects of pollution toxicity and global warming. Our first order of priority is to REDUCE EMISSIONS, then we can get down to the business of restoring and revitalizing our forests. Therefore I have put aside my own forestry practice to develop, patent, manufacture and market several new solutions for reducing emissions. At present we are working to bring together the expertise and investment to make significant changes toward clean transportation technlology. There is no time to waste.
