However, BECCS will not make a significant contribution to achieving short-term climate mitigation targets. This is partly because reforestation is more efficient over shorter periods and partly because CCS (carbon capture and storage) technology cannot be scaled up so quickly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are significant regional differences due to different regional soil and climate conditions: While afforestation is more efficient in China, for example, more carbon is stored through the application of BECCS in the South American grasslands and south-eastern Africa.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The efficiency of BECCS compared to \u2018nature-based solutions\u2019 such as afforestation will depend crucially on the upscaling of CCS facilities, whether fossil fuels are replaced by bioenergy in the future and whether bioenergy crops are grown in suitable locations that do not harm biodiversity, impair water retention or compromise food security.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2018The study shows that a comprehensive consideration of the local, temporal and socio-economic boundary conditions is necessary to assess the potential for terrestrial CO<sub>2<\/sub> storage.
