Soil Carbon

The article considers regenerative photosynthesis more elegant than costly carbon-capture factories. Photosynthesis is presented as the clearest example of quantum behavior in the article. The photosynthesis example is important because it places quantum behavior in warm, wet living systems. Photon-derived excitation in photosynthetic bacteria is described as wave-like and able to explore multiple paths. Plants are described as moving atmospheric carbon into roots and soil organic matter through photosynthesis. The article says biological noise may help guide coherence in photosynthesis. Soil is presented as the planet's largest carbon sink.
