To prevent the most devastating effects of climate change, it’s essential to cut greenhouse gas emissions by phasing out fossil fuel use. The term refers to actively pulling carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and storing it in soils, plants, rocks, and within the Earth’s crust. That’s where carbon removal comes in.
