Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to thank all the witnesses for joining our meeting today.
I would like to pick up on some of the questions that my colleague Mr. Zimmer was asking Mr. Kurz.
One of the really important aspects that I think it's important to have clarity on here is the rate of carbon capture and storage by trees.
Mr. Kurz, in my understanding, trees begin to capture more carbon as they get older. I was wondering if you could speak about what age trees or forests generally need to be before they start rapidly increasing the amount of carbon they store. What type of implications should this have in terms of the types of forests we should seek to harvest and/or protect?
