The Soil Carbon Sponge, Climate Solutions and Healthy Water Cycles
Presentation at Harvard University’s Biodiversity for a Livable Climate | April 2018.
Regenerate Earth: The practical drawdown of 20 billion tonnes of carbon back into soils annually, to rehydrate bio-systems and safely cool climates
There is only one process via which we can secure our safe climate and future. This is pedogenesis: the microbial bio-conversion of plant exudates and detritus into stable soil carbon. Our future is governed by how well we manage to regenerate the Earth’s soil carbon sponge.
