With carbon farming, agriculture ceases to be part of the climate problem and becomes a critical part of the solution

This book is the toolkit for making the soil itself a sponge for carbon. It's a powerful vision.--Bill McKibben

The Carbon Farming Solution is a book we will look back upon decades from now and wonder why something so critically relevant could have been so overlooked until that time. . . . [It] describes the foundation of the future of civilization.--Paul Hawken

In this groundbreaking book, Eric Toensmeier argues that agriculture--specifically, the subset of practices known as carbon farming--can, and should be, a linchpin of a global climate solutions platform.

Carbon farming is a suite of agricultural practices and crops that sequester carbon in the soil and in above-ground biomass. Combined with a massive reduction in fossil fuel emissions--and in concert with adaptation strategies to our changing environment-- carbon farming has the potential to bring us back from the brink of disaster and return our atmosphere to the magic number of 350 parts per million of carbon dioxide. Toensmeier's book is the first to bring together these powerful strategies in one place.
