I think it is they have done an outstanding job.

I hate for us in Washington, DC, to be mandating everything that has to be done to increase efficiency.

I have the honor and privilege of representing the entire coast of Georgia, over a hundred miles of pristine coastline

timber draws carbon out of the atmosphere. It is very important.

the annual value of the ecosystem services provided by private forests alone is valued to be over $37 billion.

We are never going to solve this problem without the buy-in from the private sector.

It just amazes me that we in Congress continue to ignore the fact that we need to reclassify marijuana.

I really appreciate your perspective on the lifecycle perspective and your explanation of that and how we should be looking at it throughout the whole process and the lifecycle carbon output.

We also need to make sure that the regulation of the energy industry doesn't create adverse price spikes.

This is not a Republican, this is not a Democrat issue. It does not discriminate against anyone.

And we, along with Representative Gonzalez, Peter Welch and Morgan Griffith, members of our committee...expressing our disappointment.

I believe that climate change is real. I believe the climate has been changing since day one.

And I just want to thank you for bringing this to the committee's attention.

Thank you for bringing this to the committee's attention.

We need to build it up. We need to be smart about these kind of things.
