How will deforestation reduce the co2 sink? answer in five points
Answers
Deforestation And Environment
As you can see, oceans are by far the largest sink of carbon.
Vegetation is the sink which is the most affected by deforestation, for this is the category in which forests and biomass are in.
Soil is also affected by deforestation due to soil erosion and defertelization caused when forests are cleared.
A carbon sink is a natural reservoir that stores carbon-containing chemical compounds accumulated over an indefinite period of time. The process by which carbon sinks remove carbon dioxide (CO
2) from the atmosphere is known as carbon sequestration. Public awareness of the significance of CO2 sinks has grown since passage of the Kyoto Protocol, which promotes their use as a form of carbon offset. There are also different strategies used to enhance this process.
