The Spekboom, a plant indigenous to the Little Karoo in South Africa, has the unique ability to sequester carbon both day and night, making it a valuable tool in fighting climate change. Jobs 4 Carbon, a nonprofit organization, has successfully rejuvenated nearly 700 hectares of land by planting young Spekbooms. The organization aims to capitalize on the plant’s potential through carbon credits, and botanist Alastair Potts praises the Spekboom’s regenerative abilities in restoring the environment and reducing emissions from land degradation.
