Carbon sequestration becomes practical when it is connected to existing regional tasks, including agriculture, nature, water, soil, biobased construction and the circular economy. Carbon then functions as an organising principle for spatial development and investment choices, rather than as a separate accounting layer.
The Carbon Sequestration Market Exploration shows that regional implementation must fit local landscapes, value chains, revenue models and governance. Linking sequestration to biodiversity, the living environment and economic development can create several benefits at once, while reducing emissions remains the first priority.
