The Earth’s invisible climate warriors
Description
We might not notice, but beneath our feet our planet is silently tackling climate change. It is estimated that soil-dwelling fungi absorb 13 billion tons of carbon dioxide per year. That’s equivalent to 36 per cent of all fossil fuel emissions!
On this episode, we unveil these invisible climate warriors – and discuss how we can protect them and their role in sustainable development. Join us as we explore fantastic fungal networks, brilliant beaver dams and groundbreaking rock-based carbon removal.
This is Farms. Food. Future – a podcast that's good for you, good for the planet and good for farmers. Brought to you by the International Fund for Agricultural Development.
