For example, as long as a tree lives it will absorb and store carbon.

More trees can also support rural employment, store carbon, improve biodiversity and offer recreational opportunities.

Net zero means that any emissions are balanced by systems that remove and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

The priorities must be to reduce energy consumption and improve energy efficiency; then to use low-carbon energy and to capture and store carbon.

Deforestation has increased world emissions by 18 per cent because trees and other plants store carbon.
