The LUCAS soil organic carbon data are measured surveyed points and the aggregated results [37] at regional level show important findings. Finally, a new proposed model for estimation of soil organic carbon in agricultural soils has estimated current top SOC stock of 17.63 Gt [38] in EU agricultural soils.
With multiple world governments looking to produce 100% carbon-free electricity, carbon capture stocks can prove to be highly lucrative investments down the road. CCS involves capturing carbon ...
The rising interest in carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies and lifting carbon prices has created a viable environment for carbon capture stocks. CCUS technologies have been ...
Soils, in general, are the largest reservoirs of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems.This is also true for soils in the Arctic that are underlain by permafrost. In 2003, Tarnocai, et al. used the Northern and Mid Latitudes Soil Database to make a determination of carbon stocks in cryosols—soils containing permafrost within two meters of the soil surface. [4]
Community investing, a subset of socially responsible investing, allows for investment directly into community-based organizations. Community investing institutions use investor capital to finance or guarantee loans to individuals and organizations that have historically been denied access to capital by traditional financial institutions.
Soil in boreal regions is a significant global carbon sink; boreal forest soil holds 200 Gt of carbon while boreal peatlands hold 400 Gt of carbon. Northernmost permafrost regions contain 10,355 ± 150 Pg of soil organic carbon (SOC) in the top 0-3 m and 21% of this carbon is in the soil organic layer (SOL) pool found in the top 30 cm of the ...
No-till farming has been claimed to increase soil organic matter, and thus increase carbon sequestration. [24] [50] While many studies report soil organic carbon increases in no-till systems, others conclude that these effects may not be observed in all systems, depending on factors, such as climate and topsoil carbon content.

In the soil, the biochar carbon is unavailable for oxidation to CO 2 and consequential atmospheric release. However concerns have been raised about biochar potentially accelerating release of the carbon already present in the soil. [99] [needs update] Terra preta, an anthropogenic, high-carbon soil, is also being investigated as a sequestration ...
