Burying wood debris “is the most effective and the least expensive, and possibly the most sustainable way to capture carbon” as I opinionated in Cornell Chronicle. This CO2 removal strategy makes it hopeful to control warming at 2 oC or below if adopted. news.cornell.edu/stories/202…

How much carbon is coming out of the northern permafrost region?
We have put together the first complete Greenhouse Gas budget of the region.
