Most policy and much research concerning the application of biomass to reduce global
warming gas emissions has concentrated either on increasing the Earth's reservoir of …

Current Kyoto-based approaches to reducing the earth's greenhouse gas problem involve
looking for ways to reduce emissions. But these are palliative at best, and at worst will allow …

Blue carbon–the carbon stored and sequestered in mangrove forests, seagrass meadows,
and tidal salt marshes–is considered a cost-effective means to achieve positive climate …

Coastal ecosystems produce and sequester significant amounts of carbon (“blue carbon”),
which has been well documented in humid and semi‐humid regions of temperate and …

Climate change and rising atmospheric CO2 levels have become much debated
environmental issues in recent years. Point source emissions of CO2 from industrialised …

Forest and bioenergy strategies offer the prospect of reduced CO2 emissions to the
atmosphere. Such strategies can affect the net flux of carbon to the atmosphere through 4 …

The application of bio-char (charcoal or biomass-derived black carbon (C)) to soil is
proposed as a novel approach to establish a significant, long-term, sink for atmospheric …

Produced from incomplete combustion of biomass and fossil fuel in the absence of oxygen,
black carbon (BC) is the collective term for a range of carbonaceous substances …

In terms of climate mitigation options, the theoretical potential of biomass energy with carbon
capture and storage (BECCS) is substantial; introducing the prospect of negative emissions …

Biomass has long been investigated both as a (nearly) CO2 neutral substitute for fossil fuels
and as a means for sequestering carbon in terrestrial ecosystems (Kheshgi et al. 2000) …
