Soil Carbon indicates Soil Health

Soil Carbon Watch is here to connect, learn, and showcase the possibilities and benefits around Soil Health.
Benefits to Improving Soil Health
​Healthy Soils draw down Carbon from the atmosphere and store it in the Soil. It's a Carbon Sink!
Brings NEW water into the system. Increases water holding capacity. Creates resilience against drought. 
Increases photosynthesis. Improves plant nutrition.  Increases food productivity and security.
Stabilizes and protects against erosion. Moderates extreme weather. Improves climate resilience.
~ Soil Carbon can be a means to improving the Soil Health and health of landscapes 
for better food security and water security all around the world. ~
"Carbon is in the wrong place"
