Carbon sequestration plays a vital role in mitigating climate change by capturing and storing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This study provides a comprehensive overview of carbon sequestration, highlighting its significance, strategies and potential environmental benefits. The study outlined the importance of carbon sequestration as a solution to the growing challenge of global warming. It emphasizes the need to address rising CO2 levels and the detrimental impacts of climate change on ecosystems, human health and the economy. Various carbon sequestration strategies employed across different sectors. It discusses natural carbon sinks such as forests, wetlands and agricultural lands, which effectively absorb CO2 through photosynthesis and store it in vegetation and soils.
