Blue carbon is the carbon stored in coastal and marine ecosystems, which sequester large amounts of carbon from the atmosphere, and are an important part of global carbon sequestration.
Coastal and marine ecosystems are necessary for many environmental processes on earth, notably, through their ability to sequester carbon from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. The carbon that is stored naturally in these ecosystems is referred to as blue carbon.
This carbon can be stored in natural formations such as:
These biospheres naturally absorb and retain large amounts of carbon in the plant structures as well as in the ground below. For example, mangroves absorb a high amount of carbon dioxide, and they are incredibly efficient at storing it as opposed to terrestrial plant life. There has been an increasing focus on these blue carbon sequestration ecosystems in recent years due to their efficiency and importance in carbon sequestration and climate change mitigation. For example, coastal ecosystems take up less than 1% of ocean surface area globally, yet they are responsible for capturing roughly 3/4ths of the total carbon sequestered by the oceans on earth.
What are rocket launches, and is it possible for them to become greener or more sustainable to avoid negatively impacting the environment or from producing excessive emissions or amounts of black carbon?
What are scope 4 emissions, how do they differ from scope 1, scope 2, and scope emissions – and how difficult and scope 4 emissions to measure, monitor, and reduce?
What is OSFI, or the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions, and how will the new guidelines released by OSFI on climate risk management help OSFI to continue curating a trustworthy financial industry for Canadians?
