Two words:

Terra Preta

"Thousands of years after its creation it has been reported to regenerate itself at the rate of 1 centimeter (0.39 in) per year"... "Terra preta's capacity to increase its own volume—thus to sequester more carbon—was first documented by pedologist William I. Woods of the University of Kansas. [7] This remains the central mystery of terra preta."

The key reason for having an interest... is not belief in the "proof" that CO2 causes global warming (which proof does not exist)... but, rather the nature of the benefits that will accrue from sustaining healthier living soils.

Well managed soils are more productive... and they make much healthier plants... and healthier food.
