Carbon sink

A carbon sink is a natural or artificial reservoir that accumulates and stores some carbon-containing chemical compound for an indefinite period. The process by which carbon sinks remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere is known as carbon sequestration. Public awareness of the significance of CO2 sinks has grown since passage of the Kyoto Protocol, which promotes their use as a form of carbon offset. There are also different strategies used to enhance this process.The natural sinks are: Absorption of carbon dioxide by the oceans via physicochemical and biological processes Photosynthesis by terrestrial plantsNatural sinks are typically much larger than artificial sinks. The main artificial sinks are: Landfills Carbon capture and storage proposalsCarbon sources include: Combustion of fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, and oil) by humans for energy and transportation Fires (by combustion) Farmland (by animal respiration); there are proposals for improvements in farming practices to reverse this.↑ ↑ ↑
