02 Apr 2021 BPC Action Applauds CREATE Act Introduction in Energy and Environment
BPC Action supports the Carbon Removal, Efficient Agencies, Technology Expertise (CREATE) Act introduced by Sens. Sinema (D-AZ), Murkowski (R-AK), Whitehouse (D-RI), and Capito (R-WV). A federal strategy is crucial for the U.S. to more effectively and aggressively pursue carbon dioxide removal and develop, commercialize, and implement the necessary technologies and strategies. The bill will enhance the effectiveness of federal programs to achieve both the climate and socioeconomic opportunities associated with carbon dioxide removal programs and enable the U.S. to establish itself as a world leader in this emerging field.
BPC Action looks forward to working with Congress to pass this important bill to improve the carbon removal tools needed to achieve carbon emission reductions at scale.
