You woud have to wonder where it would leave the landholders who have signed up & had a “profit au prendeur”/caveat put on their titles.
The legacy for the kids may be just a view of a tangle of woody weeds too thick to muster the feral goats.
Plenty of green/sustainability discussions newspapers like the Guardian and also financial sites.

Willis Eschenbach has a post at WUWT that shows net CO2 emissions. What struck me was deserts and arid zones all across the world are major CO2 sinks.
I presume because higher CO2 levels means plants transpire less per unit of growth, and growth is water limited.

Thanks for that – backs up what I have been saying for yonks drawing attention to the 1992 findings of Dr Gifford – CSIRO – “The present modelled rate of net sequestration is of a similar magnitude to CO2 emissions from continental fossil fuel burning and land clearing combined.”
