Carbon's Complicated River Ride Researchers recently found that carbon moves from the atmosphere, through trees, soil and water, and back into the atmosphere in fewer than five years, indicating that the landscape is not providing as much long-term storage of carbon dioxide as hoped. |

Demonstrating Carbon Sequestration Estimates are that human activity emits 7 billion tons of carbon dioxide a year. One proposed method for reducing how much of the greenhouse gas ends up in the atmosphere is to store the carbon dioxide underground. Natural reservoirs of the gas exist, suggesting that it is feasible. |
