Isn't it actually released when the plant decomposes? So if you stored the plant matter after death it would keep it sequestered?

- rcme 4y agoYes you could do that, but that sounds more like farming. Additionally, you should only get the carbon credit once you actually sequester the kelp, but this isn’t don’t in practice. E.g. some managed forests get carbon credits for trees that they plant, but sometimes those trees burn in a forest fire before they can be sequestered.
