IB ESS 2.3.5 Carbon sequestration
IB ESS 2.3.5 Carbon sequestration
Practise outlining how forests, mangroves and capture systems remove atmospheric carbon and store it in biomass or other reservoirs.
How this is tested
- use forest-cover change to outline how carbon sinks help mitigate climate change
- compare mangroves and rainforests as carbon sinks using carbon stored per unit area
- outline how capture flows remove carbon dioxide from power-plant emissions
