Julio Friedmann	Storing Carbon in Earth Carbon sequestration is capturing carbon dioxide, either from the atmosphere or emission streams, and storing it in reservoirs, such as plants or soils. Carbon dioxide could be converted to solid chemicals or injected into the deep ocean. Though there are risks, the potential pay-off is enormous.
