Carbon Storage in Nature

Effective climate action takes into account reducing global warming emissions, carbon sequestration (capturing and storing legacy CO2), and adaptation (ensuring that communities and economic systems withstand and survive inevitable climate change consequences).

An understanding of nature’s carbon storage solutions allows us to reduce emissions and optimize our ability to sequester carbon that is already in the atmosphere.
