Soil acts as a carbon ‘sink’, locking in GHGs that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere. Upgrading UK soils, particularly farmland and degraded peatlands, could radically improve their ability to store carbon. Away from farms, the scientists argue strongly that peatlands should be restored to maximise on natural capital.
