Climate change mitigation & Soil Carbon Sequestration
WEBCarbon is sequestered in soil by plants through photosynthesis and can be stored as soil organic carbon (SOC). Carbon sequestration secures carbon dioxide to prevent it from entering the Earth’s atmosphere. Improved agricultural practices can help mitigate climate change by reducing emissions from agriculture and other sources and by storing

The â€⃜soil health’ metaphor: Illuminating or illusory
WEBThis means that the term has little meaning for a soil divorced from its ecosystem, and that properties conferring such health depend on place and time. From this view, we consider the metaphor’s strengths and pitfalls for stewarding soils, and proffer some ways to elevate its use, mostly to spur conversation.
