Organic Farming - part of global warming solution.

In one of the longest studies ever conducted on organic farming practices, research by the US-based Rodale Institute has found that organic soil management not only minimizes fossil fuel use, it can also reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide by removing it from the air and storing it as carbon in the soil. Scientists at the institute estimate that if organic practices such as planting cover crops, composting and crop rotation were implemented on the planet’s 3.5 billion tillable acres, nearly 40 percent of current CO2 emissions could be absorbed.

A big green thank you, Rodale Institute for your dedication in spreading the word about the planet-cooling benefits of organic agricultural practices. Blessed be our planet in providing abundant natural produce for the benefit of all people.

Satellite images show melting of two of Greenland’s largest glaciers. 

The vast Petermann Glacier was recently found to have lost 11 square miles of ice in two weeks, with a giant seven-mile-long crack that may lead to a loss of one-third of the glacier, or 60 square miles. The northern Jakobshavn glacier, which produces at least one-tenth of Greenland’s icebergs, has already lost 3 square miles since the last melt season, which will speed the already rising sea levels from southern Greenland’s melt.

Researchers and scientists, we are thankful for this urgent alert.  May we all quickly take the most efficient actions in providing the necessary care and kindness to save our precious Earth.  http://www.france24.com/en/20080822-two-greenlands-largest-glaciers-lose-more-ice http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/08/080820174714.htm http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080821/ap_on_sc/sci_greenland_glaciers
