[Terrapreta] Any new Zealanders on the list?

"To grow more soil than it uses" is an interesting challenge. Having just
toured that country it would seem to require some accelerated aging, of the
soil, that is.

AGMARDT launches soil initiative

Trustees agreed at their 6 June meeting to create a small working group
tasked with stimulating engagement and debate on the importance of soil to
our society and its potential role in mitigating climate change. 

The group will initially focus on the mechanisms and practices that would
enable New Zealand to grow more soil than it uses post 2012. 
Storage of carbon in the soil is seen as a key contributor to achieving
carbon neutrality and, amongst other topics, the potential of bio-char will
be examined.
