IN FULL:

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) is hammering Republicans in the state legislature over their embrace of the latest green agenda policy scam that purports to reduce the impact carbon emissions have on climate change. While DeSantis works to push his plan to eliminate Florida’s sales tax, he contends the Republican legislative supermajority is wasting time and political capital on creating a far-left state task force charged with developing a framework to implement a carbon sequestration program in the state.

“The Florida House of Representatives has a Republican supermajority, and what are they spending their time doing? Well, they are hearing in a committee a bill about carbon sequestration,” the Florida Governor said in a video posted to X (formerly Twitter). DeSantis continued, noting that the latest far-left green agenda policy fad would mean “Potentially injecting carbon into our soil, aquifer, and even our ocean floor.”

“Carbon sequestration is a scam, ” Gov. DeSantis declared. “It is part of climate ideology, and it should not be in law in the state of Florida, and certainly should not be the work of a Republican supermajority.”

DeSantis contends that Florida voters want lawmakers to focus on other policy priorities, and implementing a carbon sequestration program may generate a political backlash that could jeopardize the Republican supermajorities in both houses of the state legislature.

Carbon sequestration is a controversial and unproven process in which atmospheric carbon dioxide is captured and stored in man-made carbon sinks created by injecting the carbon into the Earth’s crust.
