Linking the global and local dimensions: soil C is related with the mitigation of GHG and thus
the UNFCCC (on the left) but soil C is also related with soil fertility, erosion control and water retention,
and thus indirectly with agronomic productivity and land degradation, and at the policy level with the
UNCCD and food security (on the right). (From Bernoux and Chevallier, 2013.)
