Please help us in our work of spreading know-how and policy options for turning atmospheric carbon into soil organic matter.

Currently (April 2008) we do not have nonprofit 501c3 status with the IRS, but expect to have provisional determination by the end of 2008, in which case your donation will be tax-deductible.

THANK YOU

Periodically we will host an electronic collective inquiry, centered around our beliefs.

To participate in this process, you must be a registered, logged in user of this website. (To create an account, choose "Create an account" below the log in block to the right. You are logged in if you can see the "Log out" option in the Navigation menu on the right.)

The first session was completed on May 10, 2008. There is another session beginning May 19, 2008. There will be 9 questions all together, and some may contain more than one part, spread over two weeks.

If you are unfamiliar with the soil carbon opportunity or issue, there are brief materials on this website; try the Slideshow and Soil Carbon 101.
