Proposal to cull and possibly merge into carbon sequestration

[edit]

This article contains a lot of outdated content. You can see from the article statistics page that it was set up a long time ago and had very little attention since then. I think most of its content is now covered better in other articles, such as carbon sequestration, carbon dioxide removal, climate change mitigation. I suggest to cull it down and then probably merge into carbon sequestration because I think after the cull very little content will remain.

Note the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report does not mention "biosequestration" once. More common is "biologic carbon sequestration" and this content is better off to be part of the carbon sequestration article. - A lot of the content in this article is actually specific to Australia, and some can be moved to climate change in Australia.

These are strong arguments for shortening and merging what is left into the article on carbon sequestration. The biosequestration article covers forests and farms and these are already dealt with in the carbon sequestration article. Maybe a few of the illustrations could be moved over in the "merge".

Thanks. I've carried out the work now and tried to "preserve" as much of the content as possible, by moving to relevant other articles like the ones on LULUCF and REDD. EMsmile (talk) 12:16, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
