carbon dioxide (CO2) removal

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) removal refers to processes that extract CO₂ from the atmosphere or industrial emissions to help combat climate change. Techniques include natural methods like planting trees or restoring forests, which absorb CO₂ through photosynthesis, and technological approaches such as capturing CO₂ directly from power plant emissions and storing it underground, known as carbon capture and storage (CCS). These strategies aim to reduce the amount of CO₂ in the atmosphere, mitigating global warming and supporting a sustainable climate.
