Adds expenses for “natural carbon sinks” to the existing energy-efficient home improvement tax credit so those qualifying expenses can be claimed when the property is placed in service after enactment. At the same time, it removes the enhanced tax credit for carbon oxide sequestration (internal revenue code Section 45Q) for new carbon capture equipment whose construction begins after enactment, by amending Section 45Q to exclude such equipment from the previously available credit.
