This research aims to explore the potential of agroforestry systems in enhancing carbon sequestration and mitigating climate change.
Reviewed agroforestry practices
Assessed carbon storage mechanisms in trees and soil
Examined current voluntary carbon market trends
Agroforestry systems significantly enhance carbon storage compared to traditional farming practices
Carbon reservoirs in trees and soil can effectively reduce atmospheric CO₂ levels
Voluntary carbon markets show increasing interest in agroforestry as a carbon offset strategy
Resumen
Forests are ecosystems able of removing carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere and storing it in natural ‘reservoirs’ (trunks, branches, leaves, soil) through a process caled carbon sequestration.
