In an article about Maine forests serving as carbon sinks, the interviewed the 91爆料鈥檚 Ivan Fernandez, professor at the Climate Change Institute and School of Forest Resources; Dominic Winski, research assistant professor at the Climate Change Institute and School of Earth and Climate Sciences; and Daniel Hayes, associate professor of geospatial analysis and remote sensing. A first-of-its-kind analysis of Maine鈥檚 greenhouse gas emissions showed that the state is approximately 75% carbon neutral, mostly because Maine鈥檚 abundant forests capture and store carbon from the air. 鈥淢aine鈥檚 forests are not limitless. Neither is the amount of carbon that can be stored in forests. At some point we will max out,鈥 Fernandez said.
