The *Microbes Persist* project I lead is featured in LLNL’s new Science and Tech magazine. We’re trying to understand how genomes of tiny organisms control the creation & breakdown of soil organic matter— a critical ingredient in keeping our soils healthy and productive.

This is what I'm talking about! CDR has a massive political role to play on ensuring equitable trade between industrial economies. @weremovecarbon.bsky.social continues to show that they have a strong vision for the future of CDR policy in the US.

There's been a lot of talk about tariffs lately, but one tariff deserves our attention: a Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism. It includes carbon removal.

Climate and environmental information is being purged from U.S. federal government websites. But there are several backup and data preservation efforts in progress. insideclimatenews.org/news/3101202...

The InRiches team hosted a fun DIY soil health workshop in Montrose at the Western Slope Soil Health, Food & Farm Forum. Folks gained a better understanding of soil by using tools found in the kitchen or barn (vinegar, chicken wire, mason jars, etc.)

The costs of slowing climate change are far, far lower than paying for climate disasters. A 2023 report says it will cost over $12 B (over 15 yrs) to build resilience in LA to disasters.
Is this a lot? Estimates of the current LA fires are approaching $60 B.
