One of our carbon "sinks" has been overestimated...

according to research at Stanford University, et.al.

If these findings remain solid vis-a-vis other studies, the management of grassland and forest ecosystems may be significantly altered/impacted.  Furthermore, how we manage soil might be changed.

Soil is a highly complex, crucial system that too often is ignored or marginalized by politicians, planners, policy makers, and the petrochemical industry.  Hopefully, that will change for the better, and soon.

What is Not Recognized by Too Many People

Ecology, Crisis, linear "solutions", complexity, chaos, biophysical cascades, carbon sinks, interdependence, synergy, order -  the essay at the link below is concise, cogent, and a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the socio-eco-econ Crisis which, unfortunately, is accelerating.

[NOTE:  I left two comments at the end of the article below.  The longer one details what we are facing in regard to human perception of these "wicked problems".]
