20.01.2022 Why we should be paying more attention to water for climate control as well as resilience. "The important thing to realise is that we can restore ecosystems, t...hese environments that have nurtured and sustained us, and bring heat and water dynamics back into balance. Because natural processes are so entwined, every step toward regeneration brings multiple co-benefits: more plants mean more photosynthesis, which means more carbon pulled from the atmosphere into the soil, where it adds fertility; every 1% increase in soil organic carbon represents an additional 250,000 litres per hectare that can be held on the land; the more water held on the land, the greater resilience to floods and drought." https://www.theguardian.com//climate-change-water-fossil-f

We have to stop water mining.
