Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Some of this has already been covered, but this question is especially to BIOCAP.
I'm a geophysicist by training, so I like all the neat science stuff, but one of the real frustrations you get as a legislator is that whenever I see a presentation—and I get a lot of them on neat scientific stuff, new technologies, etc.—we often wonder what is reality and what is speculation. It's like watching an infomercial on inventions on TV.
I know you're going to have certain elements you want to sales pitch. I don't fault you at all for that. But give me an idea about the real technologies. We think we know roughly where carbon sequestering is. What are the real technologies that have real potential right now? Give me some real timelines. If we're talking about using technology to deal with carbon dioxide emissions, methane, etc., I'd really like some way I could honestly know what is possible and what is a smokescreen. Give me an idea about what you see realistically, when you see it coming down, and what sort of impact it will have.
I know I'm asking an impossible question.
