The objective of this study is to estimate the average availability of bio-mass in India in year 2010 and prediction in year 2025 with the help of high-resolution imagery through Google Earth Engine and GIS, also estimating release of CO2 into atmosphere, if the same bio-mass is not utilized. The range of average above ground bio-mass(agb) in 2010 varies from 0.5338 - 93.644, below ground bio-mass (bgb)1.015- 22.474, and Total bio mass (TBM) 1.5488- 116.118 kg*C/m^2 as computed from MODIS. Corresponding Total Biomass quantity in year 2010 is 4.39179 billion Ton and CO2 release in atmosphere is 11.539218400000001 billion Ton. However, the Gross Primary Production is 4.79646005 billion Ton. However, prediction was made with NASA imagery in conjunction with Vegetation indices, Land Cover and FPAR/LAI, the results obtained are in the range of average above ground bio-mass(agb) in 2010 varies from 0.000 – 79, below ground bio-mass(bgb) 0.000-22, and Total bio mass (TBM) 0- 101 mg/Ha. Corresponding Total Biomass quantity in year 2010 is 4.112982692983341 billion Ton and Co2 release in atmosphere is 13.25737496044534 billion Ton. However, predicted figures in year 2025: the above ground bio-mass (agb) 85.73578643798828 mg/Ha, below ground bio-mass(bgb) 22.05862045288086 mg/Ha, and Total bio mass (TBM) 4.83646174936528 billion Ton. Correlation and R-squared values are 0.9882423543764696 and 0.9766229509835477.
