Technologies to enhance and monitor soil carbon for Africa - Agroforestry WorldHealthy soil is critical for productive agriculture in Africa. To address declining health, countries are sharing knowledge and learning about new technologies.

5 reasons to protect mangrove forests for the futureThey store carbon, protect against flooding and create breeding grounds for fish. But these verdant, lush ecosystems are under threat.

Carbon bomb: Study says climate impact from loss of intact tropical forests grossly underreportedA new study in the journal Science Advances says that carbon impacts from the loss of intact tropical forests has been grossly underreported.

Scientists Create "Artificial Leaf" That Sucks in Carbon Dioxide and Makes FuelResearchers claim they have made a breakthrough in converting carbon dioxide into liquid fuel using sunlight.

Lakes triple amount of carbon they bury in response to human disruption of global nutrient cyclesA new study led by Loughborough University has revealed that lake burial of organic carbon has increased three-fold over the last 100 years in response to human disruption of global nutrient cycles.

Researchers find organic carbons are also absorbing light—and likely harming people's healthA telltale signature of a cookstove, commonly used to prepare food or provide heat by burning wood, charcoal, animal dung or crop residue, is the thick, sooty smoke that rises from the flames. Its remnants, black stains left on the walls and clothes and in the lungs of the people—usually women—who tend to the stoves, are a striking reminder of the hazards the stoves pose both to human health and to the environment.

The vines are drying – York scientist delivers fire warning A University of York scientist working to preserve forests has warned that vines that once protected vegetation from fire may now be drying into fuel.

Structural complexity in forests improves carbon captureScientists find that eastern U.S. forest complexity improves carbon capture

How to Halt Global Warming for $300 Billion$300 billion. That’s the money needed to stop the rise in greenhouse gases and buy up to 20 years of time to fix global warming, according to United Nations climate scientists. It’s the gross domestic product of Chile, or the world’s military spending every 60 days.

Ponds can absorb more carbon than woodland – here's how they can fight climate change in your garden - The Permaculture Research InstituteThis article is republished from The Conversation under a Creative Commons license. Read the original article. Mike Jeffries Associate Professor, Ecology, Northumbria University, Newcastle. Ponds are taken for granted. Perhaps it’s because most of us have seen them – and on occasion, fallen into them – and think they’re only good for goldfish. Ponds may be the number one habitat for children’s “minibeast” hunts, but we are supposed to grow …

How food and agri businesses can harness soil to store carbon and create value - We Mean Business CoalitionAndrew Voysey from Soil Capital examines how sequestering carbon emissions in soil can help achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Carbon fixation in history and human influence on these processes; 2020

Modern sea-level rise linked to human activities, Rutgers research reaffirmsNew research by Rutgers scientists reaffirms that modern sea-level rise is linked to human activities and not to changes in Earth's orbit.

Stanford researchers create new catalyst that can turn carbon dioxide into fuelsA new process shows promise in turning the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide back into usable fuels, and yields 4 times as much fuel as previous approaches.

Blue Carbon | Center for International Forestry ResearchBlue carbon refers to the carbon captured and stored in oceans and coastal ecosystems. It can be found in a number of places, including tidal wetlands

Sharp rise in methane levels threatens world climate targetsExperts warn that failure to act risks spike in global temperatures

Natural climate solutionsMost nations recently agreed to hold global average temperature rise to well below 2 °C. We examine how much climate mitigation nature can contribute to this goal with a comprehensive analysis of “natural climate solutions” (NCS): 20 conservation, restoration, and/or improved land management actions that increase carbon storage and/or avoid greenhouse gas emissions across global forests, wetlands, grasslands, and agricultural lands. We show that NCS can provide over one-third of the cost-effective climate mitigation needed between now and 2030 to stabilize warming to below 2 °C. Alongside aggressive fossil fuel emissions reductions, NCS offer a powerful set of options for nations to deliver on the Paris Climate Agreement while improving soil productivity, cleaning our air and water, and maintaining biodiversity.

Capturing carbon: Can it save us?We have technologies to remove greenhouse gases from air, but it’s less clear we can scale them fast enough to make a difference

‘Doe altijd het tegenovergestelde van wat de overheid adviseert’Landbouw en natuur staan vaak tegenover elkaar. Wat als ze elkaar zouden versterken? Een nieuwe beweging, gepersonifieerd door de Amerikaanse boer Joel Salatin, pleit voor natuurinclusieve landbouw, wat meer betekent dan biologisch.
