h All about YEOMANS KEYLINE PLOWS and creating fertile soil
The basic principles used in Keyline of increasing the fertility of soils has not changed since they were first described in P.A Yeomans' book The Keyline Plan published in 1954. What has changed is the design of the cultivating equipments and the modification of the techniques for soil building that the newer designs have permitted. You can now make soil, much faster.

All about terminating CLIMATE CHANGE with soils & biofuels
I'm one of the very few that maintain we still have just enough time left to totally halt climate change. The surface temperature of this planet and other planets near the Earth is set by the levels of carbon dioxide gas in their atmospheres. What's there is the problem. Not the speed at which we make the problem worse. So I believe it is utterly pointless to go to huge and highly publicized efforts to reduce current global emissions of carbon dioxide. We've got to get rid of that excess, there now.

h "Global Warming, clearest scientific explanation ever", says Allan Yeomans
What Hansen says in this video talk, is inescapable, brutal reality .
James E. Hansen has headed up the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York City since 1981. Hansen is also an adjunct professor at the Department of Environmental Science at Columbia University. He is one of the most, if not the most, respected planetary atmospheric meteorologist in the world today.

TUVALU Reader. Our statistics show we get a lot of visits from you. So I would like to meet you. Send me an email to Allan Yeomans or to aj@yeomansplow.com.au September 2012

This links to the explanation on where the concept of soil carbon sequestration originated. The origonsl paper was also entitled "Agricultural Solution to the Greenhouse Effectt "

THE SOIL CARBON SOLUTION (is the now the only chance we have)
Stopping global warming and ending climate change right now is feasible and practical. We considerable accelerate soil carbon sequestration to remove from the air the excess carbon dioxide causing the problem. To do it we change to a more chemical free, sustainable agricultural type farming. We use taxation to make it happen. Organic farming, Biodynamics, the Keyline system and similar systems are all extremely productive, extremely effective and cheap. And the way they build soil fertility sucks the excess carbon dioxide out of our air.We start controlling global warming and start terminating climate change. I originated and proposed the concept, (now referred as soil carbon sequestration) in lectures and papers back in the late 1980s. Thankfully it's now at last being seriously considered.
It's also pritty much essential that simultaneously we switch to ethanol and biodiesel for transport and switch predominately to nuclear energy for power. The oil funded "save the tropical rain forests" and their "nuclear waste is an unsolved problem" is just very clever oil company marketing.
(Added the below today Jan 30 2012. The links noted in the text are fairly standard stuff)
A 2009 study by the California Energy Commission concluded that the use of Keyline plows created the lowest carbon emissions from the subsoil and the addition of compost to grazing lands enhanced the carbon sequestration. This is an important finding because carbon sequestration, or the capture and removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, is one of the methods to reduce carbon footprints and also a long-term solution to combat the accumulation of greenhouse gasses and global warming.
Regardless of the specific brand of plow used, the concept of the Yeoman's Plow and vertical tillage is a significant aspect of sustainable agriculture , Keyline design, and holistic range management (I found this in "The Innovation Diaries". Thank you friends.)
