Soil Carbon Sequestration

Soil carbon sequestration is the process of capturing and storing carbon dioxide (CO2) in the soil through natural processes, such as photosynthesis and the decomposition of organic matter. This practice is an essential component of regenerative agriculture and sustainable landscaping, as it helps reduce greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere and mitigates climate change. Soil carbon sequestration can be enhanced through practices such as no-till farming, cover cropping, the use of compost and organic matter, and the preservation of soil structure. By increasing the carbon content in soils, landscapers can improve soil fertility, water retention, and resilience to climate variability, while also contributing to global efforts to combat climate change.
