Worldwide, nature’s power to breathe, filter and store carbon dioxide can provide more than 1/3 of emissions reductions needed to meet the Paris Agreement target, according to a pioneering study by The Nature Conservancy and partners. Trees capture and store carbon dioxide (CO2) through the process of photosynthesis.

By Department of Conservation & Natural Resources Efforts to slow or stop global warming involve many strategies working together. One strategy is to counterbalance carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions that contribute to climate change by drawing an equal amount of carbon out of the atmosphere, such as through planting trees.
