Biomass carbon removal and storage (BiCRS) encompasses a wide range of strategies to source sustainably produced biomass via natural photosynthesis, process the biomass into durable products, and manage the embedded or transformed biogenic carbon for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) via long-term storage. BiCRS processes have the potential to contribute to climate change mitigation.
