Our Compost Climate Connections webinar series features the crucial role of compost in mitigating and building resilience to climate change. Jessica Chiartas a Ph.D. student with the University of California, Davis Land, Air and Water Resources Department, joined us for our third webinar in the series. Jessica shared results from a recently published 19-year study which showed that compost plays a key role in soil carbon storage in semi-arid croplands; significantly offsetting CO2 emissions (21.8 Mg/ha).
