IT'S TIME FOR ACTION
By: Andrew S.The clock is ticking and the alarm has already sounded. The world must take action to avoid a disaster of increasing scale as time passes. We must now find solutions that go outside of the box of what Al Gore has proposed with emissions cuts. World leaders must now forge a global coalition of world leaders committed to solving the problem. The time has come to find ways to nurture mankind's collective genius to save the planet was a red-hot fever that will wipe out most of Earth's species.

With the aid of the chlorophyll in plant leaves, carbon dioxide gas is absorbed and with some water and warm sunlight energy, gets converted into plant material. Eventually the plant or parts of the plant dies. In the correct environment soil microbes, fungi and earthworms convert this material into rich humus. That is the only way topsoil is ever created. By increasing the fertility of our soils we extract huge quantities of carbon dioxide from our atmosphere.
