Soil as Carbon Storehouse: New Weapon in Climate Fight?
Recognition of the vital role played by soil carbon could mark an important if subtle shift in the discussion about global warming, which has been heavily focused on curbing emissions of fossil fuels. But a look at soil brings a sharper focus on potential carbon sinks.

The Potential for Regenerative Agriculture in the Developing World
