1. What is Carbon Sequestration?
Carbon Sequestration is the process of capturing and storing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) to reduce its presence in the air.
Think of it as the Earth’s way of putting CO₂ in timeout.
Types of Sequestration:
🌿 Biological: Trees, forests, soils, and oceans naturally absorb CO₂.
🏭 Geological: CO₂ is captured from factories and stored underground in rock formations.
⚗️ Technological (CCS): Carbon Capture & Storage technology pulls CO₂ from emissions before it hits the sky.
2. Why is it Important?
🌍 Reduces greenhouse gases
🌱 Helps reverse climate change
🛑 Slows global warming
✨ Supports sustainable development
3. What are Carbon Credits?
A Carbon Credit = 1 metric ton of CO₂ reduced or removed from the atmosphere.
It’s like climate currency!
How It Works:
A company emits CO₂
Another invests in green projects (like afforestation or clean energy)
The green project earns carbon credits
Companies buy those credits to offset their emissions
> 1 Credit = 1 Ton of CO₂ Not in the Air
4. Why Carbon Credits Matter
✅ Encourage green innovation
✅ Allow developing countries to monetize eco-projects
✅ Make polluters pay and protectors earn
✅ Help meet global climate targets (like Net Zero 2050)
5. Examples of Carbon Credit Projects
Planting 10,000 trees
Renewable energy farms
Biogas & composting projects
Mangrove reforestation
Capturing landfill methane
6. Global Impact & Market
Carbon market is valued at $900+ billion and growing!
Big players like India, Brazil, and African nations are exporting carbon credits for global corporations to offset their carbon footprints.

8. Call to Action
Plant a tree, support a carbon project, or go carbon-neutral in your lifestyle!
Because every ton matters.
Every choice counts.
Every breath deserves a cleaner tomorrow.
