Creating more forest
through afforestation also enhances Bangladesh's ability to sink carbon.
It reiterates — also with «high confidence» — earlier calls for «an integrated approach» that includes «reducing CO2 emissions by reducing deforestation, forest degradation and forest fires; storing carbon in terrestrial systems (for example,
through afforestation); and providing bioenergy feedstocks.»
Instead, the language could imply reaching net - zero, where any remaining emissions are balanced by sequestration
through afforestation or negative emissions technologies.
Overall the researchers estimate that 20 percent of U.S. carbon emissions could be offset
through afforestation, or the conversion of marginal agricultural lands into forests.

This seems highly unwise, and, as I discussed in a piece on HuffPost about it, «Methane in the Twilight Zone, Episode 2,» * the more that you're planning on doing anything about climate change — i.e., lowering GHG emissions, pulling carbon out of the system
through biochar,
afforestation, etc — the less sense it makes.
Biological sequestration includes direct removal of CO2 from the atmosphere
through land - use change,
afforestation, reforestation, carbon storage in landfills and practices that enhance soil carbon in agriculture.

afforestation), at the country or regional level,
through 2100.

afforestation actions.
In addition, peak flows are reduced by reservoirs, sustainable urban drainage systems (SUDS, e.g., Pasche et al. 2008), retarding basins, infiltration basins, and
through targeted land management plans such as
afforestation and river renaturation (Reinhardt et al. 2011).

afforestation, reforestation and deforestation activities result in more emissions than removals, then the Party may offset these emissions
through forest management activities, up to a total level of 9 megatons of carbon per year for the five - year commitment period.
Mitigation scenarios that achieve the ambitious targets included in the Paris Agreement typically rely on greenhouse gas emission reductions combined with net carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the atmosphere, mostly accomplished
through large - scale application of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage, and
afforestation.
