What is carbon sequestration?

One of the main techniques for carbon sequestration is storage in geological reservoirs, where CO2 is captured and injected into deep geological formations, such as salt formations, so that it can be stored permanently. Another common technique is capture and storage in forests, where trees and other plants absorb CO2 from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and store it in their biomass.

O carbon sequestration is an important strategy to reduce CO2 emissions and combat global warming. However, there are significant challenges associated with these techniques, including economic and environmental costs, as well as safety and regulatory issues. Still, the carbon sequestration remains a growing area of ​​research and development, with many companies and governments working to develop new techniques and solutions.

Deforestation on indigenous lands caused CO2 emissions in the Amazon

Deforestation in indigenous lands (TIs) in the Brazilian Amazon led to the emission of 96 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) between 2013 and 2021. Of this total, 59% were emitted in the last 3 years analyzed (2019-2021), when there was an intensification of the devastation, showed research led by Brazilians published in the journal Scientific Reports. 🌳
