More carbon stored in soil than in atmosphere
- "Soil contains three times more carbon than the atmosphere. Some of that carbon remains trapped underground through chemical reactions with minerals. However, most is in the form of decomposing plant and animal matter, which microorganisms break down to create energy and CO2 – the equivalent of our eating and breathing." - Excerpt from Stanford Univeristy.
