I'll say it, because the article neglected to: "It's the soil health, stupid." It's troubling how (at least in mass media) every environmental problem gets collapsed down to just CO2 and greenhouse gases. Yes it does play a role here, but it shouldn't eclipse the other existential environmental problems we also face: soil erosion and killing the soil life that 'mines' nutrients for plants.[0] People imagine soil as merely an inert sponge that only stores nutrients (to the delight of fertilizer companies), but healthy living soil will actually break down rocks and air to create a constant supply of nutrients manufactured in situ.
