Biomass Carbon Sequestration

Biomass carbon sequestration is a process where plants absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and store it in their biomass—like roots, stems, and leaves. When we utilize biomass for energy or products, it can help reduce CO2 levels, since the carbon released when biomass is used is offset by the carbon absorbed while the plants were growing. This method is a sustainable way to manage carbon in the environment, helping combat climate change by locking away carbon that would otherwise contribute to greenhouse gas emissions.
