Carbon sequestration
FAO/Giulio Napolitano
Motivation: Soils are important carbon stores. The release of greenhouse gases in the soil, particularly through agricultural activities, has consequences for the global atmospheric CO2 budget. Measures that lead to long-term storage of carbon in the soil (carbon sequestration) are a key to mitigate climate change.
