  2. Carbon sequestration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_sequestration

    Carbon sequestration is the process of storing carbon in a carbon pool. [2]: 2248 It plays a crucial role in limiting climate change by reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. There are two main types of carbon sequestration: biologic (also called biosequestration) and geologic. [3]

  4. Blue carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_carbon

    Blue carbon is defined by the IPCC as "Biologically driven carbon fluxes and storage in marine systems that are amenable to management." [2]: 2220 Another definition states: "Blue carbon refers to organic carbon that is captured and stored by the oceans and coastal ecosystems, particularly by vegetated coastal ecosystems: seagrass meadows, tidal marshes, and mangrove forests."

  5. Carbon capture and storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_capture_and_storage

    Direct air carbon capture and sequestration (DACCS) is the use of chemical or physical processes to extract CO 2 directly from the ambient air and putting the captured CO 2 into long-term storage. [119] In contrast to CCS, which captures emissions from a point source, DAC has the potential to remove carbon dioxide that is already in the atmosphere.

  6. Carbon sink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_sink

    A carbon sink is a natural or artificial carbon sequestration process that "removes a greenhouse gas, an aerosol or a precursor of a greenhouse gas from the atmosphere". [2]: 2249 These sinks form an important part of the natural carbon cycle.

  7. Carbon farming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_farming

    Carbon farming enhances carbon sequestration in the soil. Carbon farming is a set of agricultural methods that aim to store carbon in the soil, crop roots, wood and leaves. The technical term for this is carbon sequestration. The overall goal of carbon farming is to create a net loss of carbon from the atmosphere. [1]

  8. Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioenergy_with_carbon...

    Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is the process of extracting bioenergy from biomass and capturing and storing the carbon dioxide (CO 2) that is produced. Greenhouse gas emissions from bioenergy can be low because when vegetation is harvested for bioenergy, new vegetation can grow that will absorb CO 2 from the air through ...

  9. Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_Sequestration...

    The Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (CSLF) is an international initiative to advance carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology. The Forum is a Ministerial-level organization that includes 23 member countries and the European Commission. [ 1 ]
