Carbon+Sequestration+(Colleen+Kelly)

**What is it? **
 * Carbon Sequestration. **
 * Carbon Sequestration is trapping, seperating and storing of Carbon Dioxide to reduce green house gas emmisions.

**When is it useful?** **What cycle(s) does this topic relate to?** ** Is It a viable solution to protect the biosphere? ** **What are the possible consequences to the enviroment?**
 * What problems is it trying to solve? **
 * ​ It is trying to reduce the amount of Carbon Dioxide emissions.
 * Lowering the cost and energy penalty associated with CO2 capture from large point sources; and (2) improving the understanding of factors affecting CO2 storage permanence, capacity, and safety in geologic formations and terrestrial ecosystems. Once these objectives are met, new and existing power plants and fuel processing facilities in the U.S. and around the world will have the potential to be retrofitted with CO2 capture technologies.
 * ALL THE TIME!
 * The Carbon Cycle- Carbon Sequestration will help to stabilize the Carbon cycle becuase it will start to get all of the excess Carbon out of the atmosphere. The carbon that plants and trees do not use for cellular respiration.

 * This video is a simple explanation of what Carbon Sequestration is and what it is used for. The video also gives a good explanation of why we need Carbon Sequestration and it tell us what Carbon sequestration helps us accomplish.media type="youtube" key="3dm1esCpzR0" height="216" width="257"
 * Yes, Carbon Sequestration is a very viable solution to protect the biosphere because it will help reduce the amount of Carbon in the air. This will reduce the amount of heat locked into the atomsphere. In the long run Carbon Sequestration would be very good becuase global warming would go down majorly and the carbon cycle would go back to a somewhat normal state.
 * The only possible consequence to Carbon Sequestration is that it will not be very useful because you cannot automatically collect the Carbon from the coal plants making the carbon harder to catch.[[image:http://www.matternetwork.com/images/Matter/carbon_sequestration(1).jpg width="320" height="239"]]
 * This diagram shows us how Carbon Sequestration works and it helps us to understand how and why it would help the environment.
