Carbon Capture Crops

University of Sheffield

School of Biosciences

Research Group: Plants, Photosynthesis and Soil

To avoid climate breakdown, humanity urgently needs to design technologies to capture and store carbon. A widely proposed ‘nature-based’ solution is the enhancement of photosynthetic carbon-capture by plants but with a growing population, repurposing existing cropland for carbon sequestration is not feasible.
