We undertook an emission reduction study during January, 2018 through documentation of carbon sequestration potential of endemic dominant floral species (tree variety) in two major sites of West Bengal. The two sites where Barasat within the city of Kolkata and Jharkhali in central Indian Sundarbans. We observed greater biomass and carbon sequestration in the trees of Barasat region urban area compared those in the mangroves of Jharkhali (deltaic complex region). The study reveals that carbon sequestration is regulated by biomass and edaphic factors. Region-specific plantation with higher biomass and specific gravity are suggested as the end conclusion of the work.
