Also, "Carbon positive" means they're releasing more carbon than they're sequestering.

If they were trying to greenwash they'd be claiming to be "carbon neutral" or lower.

I'm sure that "carbon positive" can mean anything, but the context of this sentence says that it refers to carbon sequestration.
