According to recent studies, the forests covering about 30% of the earth s surface [1] contain 80% terrestrial biomass and provide habitat for about half of the world s known species of plants and animals [2]. Forests provide a wide range of ecological, economic, and social assets, as well as services such as climate regulation through the storage of carbon in complex physical,...

For the last part of the process chain, the geological storage of C02, an important step has been achieved in the EU by a Directive on the geological storage of carbon dioxide (EC, 2008), closing a gap that has been discussed in the scientific community and by enterprise representatives of C02 intensive industries for a long time.7... 

Storage of carbon dioxide by carbon capture and sequestration solutions for fossil fuels this is often not seen as a long-term solution and exploratory studies indicate that carbon sequestration may not be acceptable to the public (Whitmarsh et al., 2006) ... 

As described previously, ester bonds and polyesters are used extensively in nature for temporary storage of carbon. The relative ease of making and breaking ester bonds makes them an ideal choice for degradable polymer backbones.

In the mid-term, sequestration pilot testing will develop options for direct and indirect sequestration. The direct options involve the capture of C02 at the power plant before it enters the atmosphere coupled with "value-added" sequestration, such as using COz in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) operation and in methane production from deep unmineable coal seams. "Indirect" sequestration involves research on means of integrating fossil fuel production and use with terrestrial sequestration and enhanced ocean storage of carbon.

The major releases of terrestrial carbon result from the oxidation of vegetation and soils associated with the expansion of cultivated land. The harvest of forests for fuelwood and timber is less important because the release of carbon to the atmosphere from the oxidation of wood products is likely to be balanced by the storage of carbon in regrowing forests. The balance will occur only as long as the forests harvested are allowed to regrow, however. If wood harvest leads to permanent deforestation, the process will release carbon to the atmosphere.
