Natural and not-so-natural ways to cool our planet by removing and storing carbon

It’s in the news every day: Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). Learn about both kinds of CCS: the natural carbon capture happening in forests, wetlands, and grasslands, as well as the technology for capturing and storing carbon pollution from fossil fuels. We’ll discuss the proposed Montezuma Wetlands CCS project in our own backyard and what you can do to prevent it.
