The following is a list of bills pertaining to Global Warming Pollution and CO₂ Sequestration that MEIC followed at the 2007 Legislature, and their final status:

SB 105 (Sen. Greg Lind, D-Missoula): This bill would provide tax breaks for equipment to sequester carbon dioxide. MEIC position: OPPOSE. MEIC's position is that the cost of capturing carbon dioxide needs to ultimately be reflected in the cost of fossil fuel-generated power, which would bring those rates in line with alternative energy sources like wind and solar. Therefefore, MEIC doesn't support tax breaks for carbon sequestration equipment.

SB 218 (Sen. Greg Lind, D-Missoula, and Sen. Ron Erickson, D-Missoula): This bill would define and require state to develop geologic sequestration standards for CO2. MEIC position: SUPPORT. SEE FACT SHEET on carbon sequestration (196 K pdf)
