Mycorrhizae, Microplastics and Money: Wastes as a Resource for Farming and Forestry to Deliver Reversal of Global Warming features the establishment and continuing evolution of a technology-based, global plan to deliver environmental sustainability that works because it is financially driven. This book will highlight on upcycling end-of-life materials using mycorrhizae and microplastic technology. This book contains technological approaches to upcycle wastes while not using mineral fertilizers but still delivering higher yields, raising the possibility of receiving carbon credits. Information will be included on safe upscaling of waste and financial and environmental sustainability, practical approaches to land management, and reverse franchising.
