Car Sharing For A Cleaner Environment

Car Sharing To Cut Emissions

I believe there are schemes for car sharing already in place but it could become even more widespread and is very important. We are not talking about short journeys once in a while.  It is about people travelling to the same workplace from the same town each day, this is where car sharing would make so much sense.

The good news is that this scheme has had success and will surely be the way forward to cut emissions and create a better, healthier environment.  Of course the other benefit is cost.

Carbon Sequestration

Carbon Sequestration 

• 2015 has been declared the International Year of Soils, with the objective to achieve full recognition of the prominent contributions of soils to food security and climate change adaptation
• Carbon sequestration in soils can help regenerate soils, increase crop yields, reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, limit fresh water usage, reduce use of agricultural chemicals, and reduce pollution
• About 40 percent of agricultural soils around the globe is currently classified as degraded or seriously degraded; the world only has about 60 years’ worth of topsoil left
