Carbon Sequestration

Carbon sequestration refers to the process by which carbon dioxide is captured from the atmosphere and stored in natural or engineered systems to reduce atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations. Natural sequestration occurs in forests, soils, wetlands and oceans through biological and chemical processes. Technological approaches include capturing carbon dioxide from industrial emissions and storing it in geological formations.
