These changes are linked to the climbing levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in our atmosphere, caused by human activities such as burning fossil fuels for energy. By taking action to reduce emissions of the greenhouse gas pollution that warms our planet, we can reduce the risks we will face from future climate change. EPA, From the EPA climate change webpage : We are already experiencing the effects of climate change.

Results of the study show that by applying biochar before planting energy crops, soil greenhouse-gas emissions can be cut by around a third. by Michael Smith (Veshengro) ''Biochar'' is the term used for charcoal when it is being employed as a soil amendment.

Plants using comparatively clean gas would be permitted to emit perhaps 1,000 pounds of carbon dioxide per megawatt-hour, a ceiling within easy reach using modern technologies. To see this imagine if the last unit of abatement for a new coal plant is higher, say $80, than for a new natural gas plant, which is $50.
