Wednesday, 1/6/21 Soil Carbon in Natural and Restored Lands
Climate change is a real threat and there is plenty of buzz about how to pull greenhouse gasses, like CO2, out of the atmosphere. Soil is the largest terrestrial pool of carbon in the world and deeper understanding of how carbon ends up in soil, and how long it stays there, can inform actions to directly address global climate change. Our presenter Elizabeth Bach, Ecosystem Restoration Scientist with The Nature Conservancy at Nachusa Grasslands will provide an overview of soil carbon, why we care, and how conserving and restoring land in Illinois can be part of global climate solutions.
Our monthly in-person meetings take place atFremont Public Library located in Mundelein, Illinois, usually on the 1st Tuesday of each month.
