Carbon Sequestration

New Zealanders contribute 6.3 tonnes CO₂ per capita each year to the atmosphere. CO₂ gases are a known cause of global warming. As the Kauri Trees forest grows, it will sequestrate (capture and store) carbon from the atmosphere. 

Over the first 80 years, nearly 25,000 tonnes of carbon will be captured and stored in kauri trees and remnant nurse trees.
