Carbon Credit is a good way to get some awareness into the society. We recently found another big Glacier got separated from the Original formation. The evidence is growing to carbon excess in the atmosphere. We have two options one to tell ourselves that the train has left the station and nothing can be done at this point but to stop worrying about carbon and live a care free existence. Or two see the glass half full and do something about recovering from the loss and see if a restraint from human side produce any new results. When the cows come home, the question is how we lead ourselves into oblivion or how we found ourselves in a tight corner and recovered from the losses. Carbon credit and buy back per ton is ranging anywhere from $5/ cubic ton to $15/metric ton. The only realistic method to do away with this damage is to put the trees back in place, so they will go back to what they do best that is carbon sequestering. The tress just need initial maintaience and then they are on their own, they are survivors and benefit us in the long run.

Carbon Sequestering is on every ones mind and one way of getting their is through planting more trees, liquifying the co2 well you can tell its not accomplished without any more of resulting carbon, even if its not directly dipping into the conventional energy sources, its carbon dioxide potential by taking the energy from otherwise used for conventional purpose. Carbon Sequestering with trees is a very natural way of trying to get this balance out. Afforestation is not the magic bullet by any analysis but its a logical step in the right direction. Because GHG’s problem we have currently is years of deforestation and burning oil. The best way to restore this is start planting trees. Carbon offset technology has come a long way in terms of the total amount of work needed to produce a unit of energy and the methods of calculating this whole transformation. Carbon Sequestering is this idea that we are trying to correct our mistake of putting out excess carbon out int he atmosphere by taking it back and storing it in forms that are harm less. The three methods most often discussed are the drilling a deep deep hole into the earth and storing liquefied carbon underground, yes you guessed right it take a lot of energy and technology. Second method is to pump the excess carbon into the atmosphere up above the ionsphere and thirdly but good old fashion planting trees.
