>>September 9 -- California Gov. Gray Davis (D) signed a bill that creates a
>>forest carbon registry that may enable landowners to receive pollution
>>credits for reducing greenhouse gases. Under the law, companies and 
>>private landowners can register forest projects that can be shown to 
>>reduce greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. The bills author, 
>>California Sen. Byron Sher (D), said the forestry law will encourage 
>>forest products companies and forest owners to conserve and regenerate forests.
