What are some effective carbon sequestration methods?

What are some effective carbon sequestration methods?

There are several effective methods for carbon sequestration, including reforestation, soil carbon storage, and direct air capture.

Can you explain how reforestation helps in carbon sequestration?

Reforestation helps by planting trees that absorb CO2 from the atmosphere as they grow, effectively storing carbon in their biomass.

What is soil carbon storage?

Soil carbon storage involves enhancing the soil's ability to store carbon through practices like cover cropping and reduced tillage.

Are there any technological methods for carbon sequestration?

Yes, technologies like direct air capture and carbon capture and storage (CCS) are designed to remove CO2 from the atmosphere and store it underground.

How effective are these methods in combating climate change?

These methods can significantly reduce atmospheric CO2 levels, but their effectiveness varies and they should complement broader climate strategies.
