Dyk That Carbon Sinks Can Help Reduce The Effects ..

#DYK that carbon sinks can help reduce the effects of climate change? This is done by reducing the amount of greenhouse gases in the air, which contributes to global warming.

Oceans and forests are examples of natural carbon sinks. Plants on land and in the ocean remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. While carbon sinks are essential in combating climate change, it is crucial to highlight that they alone can not solve the problem.

A collaborative study between WWF-Malaysia and Boston Consulting Group has shown that Malaysia has unique advantages which position it strongly for progressive climate transition and to achieve Net Zero. Malaysia’s abundant forest cover which acts as a natural carbon sink is a critical source of carbon removals – offsetting a large part of the country’s emissions.
