Carbon dioxide removal

Carbon dioxide removal is the process of capturing CO2 that's already in the atmosphere and storing it permanently so it can no longer contribute to climate change. Scientists use various methods to accomplish this, ranging from planting trees that naturally absorb carbon dioxide to using specialized machines that chemically extract it from the air and lock it away underground or in solid materials. This approach complements efforts to reduce emissions from burning fossil fuels, offering a way to address the greenhouse gases already accumulated in our atmosphere.
