Wetlands are some of the world's most undervalued weapons against climate change. They store huge quantities of carbon – but without better protection, many could soon be drained or paved over.

The Paris climate agreement aims to limit global warming to 2C above pre-industrial levels. We need to curb greenhouse gas emissions, but we can also make gains with carbon farming.
Pollution has increased carbon in our soils - which is good for climate change. But this carbon may not stay there for long.
To help feed a growing world population, restore biodiversity and slow climate change, a geologist calls for a moon shot effort to restore healthy soil around the world.
Whether or not farmers believe human activities are changing the climate (many don't), an agriculture specialist urges them to pursue payments for techniques that return carbon to the soil.
The current climate talks in Morocco are a golden opportunity for making strides on the adaptation of African agriculture. African countries need the tools necessary to do so.
Eating meat means greenhouse emissions. But the emissions from growing crops may have been underestimated, meaning that a climate-friendly diet isn't as straightforward as simply going vegetarian.
A new bid to boost the amount of carbon stored in the world's soils has been launched at the Paris climate summit.
Plans to store more carbon in French soil could have a massive impact on the country's emissions – if they can pull it off.
With bids open today for the government's Emissions Reduction Fund, experts explain how storing carbon can be a win for wildlife too.
It’s no exaggeration to say the tropics drive our planet’s carbon cycle – the constant transfer of carbon back and forth, on a global scale, between living things and the environment. Understanding the…
Australian farmers and rural land owners are being told that they will be given powerful and direct incentives to store carbon in the land under the federal government’s new climate policy. But is that…
Soils which formed on the Earth’s surface thousands of years ago and are now fossils buried deep underground are rich in…
Global warming will act as a catalyst for increased aridity and result in an imbalance of soil nutrients and decreased productivity…
Many surface soils in the southwest of Western Australia are already storing as much carbon as they can, a study has found…
Wind erosion and dust storms have led to the loss of about 1.6 million tonnes of carbon from Australian soils each year…
